“The creation of Minister’s Roundtable went far beyond booking an event space, with youth being in the forefront of all decisions. The Minister of Social Development, Hon. Cindy Miles, was joined by seven other senior government staff, Partners for Youth Inc staff, youth support workers, and most importantly 20 former and current youth in care. The youth’s willingness to openly share their hopeful, painful and honest stories of their time in care created a safe space for understanding that no report could ever replicate.”
