Who is Prince Edward Island Allied Youth for?

PEI AY is a program designed for youth in grades 7-12. Any youth who
lives in the province of Prince Edward Island and is attending junior or
senior high school can attend an Allied Youth meeting.

What is Allied Youth about?

Allied Youth is a an organization that from it's motto "Increases the awareness
of the issues facing youth today". Attempting to improve the lives of today's
youth and have those youth positively impact their local communities and the
world in which they live. We take part in many activities and lifestyle changing
events which are fun and have positive effects on the members who take part.


The Prince Edward Island Allied Youth program has three main issues on
which they focus:

Leadership Development: Teaching the youth to take charge of their lives and
develop themselves to their full potential. Public Speaking, Leadership roles, and
mentally developing today's youth into tomorrow's leaders are the main aims
of the Allied Youth program on Prince Edward Island

Community Involvement: By taking part in their communities Allied Youth members help make their communities stronger, healthier and happier places in which to live. Activities such as visiting a seniors citizen's residence, hosting a local beach-bonfire, taking part in fundraisers or clean-ups which benefit the communities in which the youth are based.

Healthy Lifestyle: Allied Youth are proud innovators in teaching youth the positive benefits of a healthy lifestyle. PEI AY founded the Peer Education Program which trains youth (Grades 10-12) to talk to younger students on the importance of the issues surrounding the drug and alcohol choices that many of today's young people face on a daily basis.
