Hope or Heartbreak: Aboriginal Youth and Canada’s future

Hope or Heartbreak: Aboriginal Youth and Canada’s future

This publication is a special issue of the Horizon’s periodical that overviews the complex issues facing Aboriginal Youth in Canada today. It details the realities and the research that are currently being discussed in a variety of tribes. Of particular interest for the development of my MP for class is the paper included from doctoral student Cheryl Aman who investigates factors that have been researched for success of Indigenous students in BC. It overviews the policy changes that the Ministry is being challenged to review. There is also a research brief from Dr. Alison Taylor on the Factors that affect the education and work transition of Aboriginal youth. Overall, this is the single most relevant collection of contemporary research and writing that deals with Canadian Indigenous youth that I have come across so far.
