Media partners in the Spotlight: Child Welfare (SCW) collaborative journalism project are interested in commissioning art/photos from youth with lived experience in “care.”
To support these connections, SCW is creating a directory of artists from “care.” Anyone who has lived through government “care” (e.g. foster care, youth agreements, etc.) can join the directory. For more information on the directory or to join, see the SCW’s Artists from Care Directory Form, located here.
Also, in case you missed it, Children’s Aid Foundation of Canada (CAFC) recently launched a Youth and Lived-Expert Business Directory. If you are a young person with lived experience of the child welfare system and running your own business, you can also promote this on our directory! To submit your business for inclusion, see CAFC’s Youth and Lived Expert-Led Business Directory Form, located here.
