Mentorship
My husband is a Black professional living in Durham region. He says that he would like to see the success of the next generation. There are many Black professionals living in the region. We believe that there should be ongoing mentorship and networking opportunities that young Black people in Durham Region have access to; potentially online or through community centres when they reopen.
We also think youth should be engaged with competitions that reward achievement in areas of interest. Some ideas are music production, game development, or storytelling.
What types of initiatives do we have, or are we looking at in Durham Region for our Black youth?
