Annual Provincial Youth Justice Committee Conference 

The 11th Annual YJC Conference in Calgary from October 14th to October 16th was a great success. The conference focuses on providing opportunities for Youth Justice Committee volunteers from across the province to share experiences, learn from each other and further develop knowledge in working with you and the prevention of crime.
