Living Library
Don’t just imagine your future—talk to someone who’s living it!
The Youth Employment Centre’s new Living Library series, funded through RBC Foundation, gives youth ages 15-24 the ability to network, connect, and learn from working professionals.
Each library will feature a variety of human, or “living books,” across a wide range of industries and careers. Guests will connect with youth in small groups (either in person or virtually) to share their experiences, answer questions, and provide advice throughout.
Follow along for monthly event date announcements and featured guests you could meet!
