ABOUT OUR SURVEY:

This survey is by youth at Scadding Court Community Centre.  We want to collect information about families in the Bathurst St. and Dundas St. West area. The information you share will help us to better understand the community and the community’s needs around illegal drug prevention programming for youth.  Our group will use the results of the survey to design and deliver our own unique illegal drug use/abuse prevention and healthy living program for youth aged 10 – 15.
