Roberts Creek School PAC has expressed interest in this program. He asked if this training would be available from the RCMP? He noted that in the past West Vancouver Police have trained students. The RCMP noted they have not done this training and suggested the School District contact other districts regarding procedures to implement training.

Greg Russell noted there is a need for responsibly training crossing guards in the School District and he will contact other jurisdictions to enquire about their program and who did the training. - John Hird noted he had observed parents taking children across School Road outside of the crosswalks and enforcement is needed as this does not set a good example for the children to not use cross walks. Greg Kitchen noted he will send a recommendation to the Gibsons Elementary Principal to communicate to parents to use crosswalks and that area construction is dangerous. - John Hird stated that the drop off in front of the school has created traffic congestion. Round Table - Frank Mauro thanked Sgt. McCarthy for his work with speeding motorboat offenders in Pender Harbour. The Community Association is arranging a Town Hall Meeting soon and would like to invite the RCMP to attend and provide information on what can be done to control speeding motorboats in their area. - Greg Kitchen stated that in light of incidents in Seattle and Ottawa, the School District is fortunate to have a Protocol Agreement with the RCMP and the Ministry of Children and Families to identify potential behavior problems in the schools. Each situation is looked at to determine and minimize risk. They work closely with the RCMP regarding lockdown procedures in the schools. - Bill Elsner thanked Sgt. McCarthy for his support over the years to the Policing Committee, SCEP, Search and Rescue and the Fire Departments, noting he has been very approachable and easy to work with. - Garry Nohr thanked Sgt. McCarthy for his work over the years on the Sunshine Coast. - Bruce Bauman also thanked Sgt. McCarthy for his work over the years. - Lee Turnbull stated this was her last Policing Committee meeting and she is not running in the upcoming election.

They have changed thefocus: when the youth arrives, they have to be seen very soon by a doctor for an initialassessment. There is openness at the hospital to make changes.

them for free. They often have 40-60 people there a few times per month. The focus is primarilyon Aboriginal culture and activities. A new facilitator was hired part time into that position.
Ron mentioned a presentation he heard recently on the importance of partnerships. It is the wayof the future, especially for small communities, and may be the only way organizations will surviveover the next ten years. We could be competing for work, but there are smarter and wiser ways ofdoing things by working together.
Alice Lutes noted that, regarding partnerships, within the past two weeks there was an act ofrecognition between the Sechelt Indian Government and the District of Sechelt. This past weekPublic Health and the District of Sechelt signed an agreement that will enable them to worktogether on bylaws and issues that came out in the Vital Signs report.
Ron proposed there is an opportunity to develop a brochure for emergency situations thatpresents who is who in community services! resources on the Sunshine Coast, and what to do inan emergency or different kinds of crisis. It was noted that there is a list of community resourcesrelated to crisis, geared to suicide prevention, which is available; Ron and Ted will discuss further.

The District StudentLeadership Team is up and running, with reps from all the high schools, typically grade 11 and 12students with a strong degree of connectedness to the schools who see the big picture and haveempathy and understanding for kids less connected to school. The School District is seeing a spikein cyber issues, social media, and risky behavior — consistent with what is happening in BC — and ispurchasing materials to be more proactive, and educating educators to be able to address this.High schools have put information on websites. Concern about grads: there are often activitiesthat come up that are not sanctioned by the school. “S Trips” is an example that is well knownacross North America; it involves risky behavior and lack of chaperones. If you hear of an event oractivity, call the school to see if it is a school event. At Chatelech, a new section of the library willopen, with new Gay Strait Alliance (GSA) sanctioned books and material. GSA Clubs last year werealive and well in the school, and are now getting rolling. Last year the SD46 Board passed aregulation regarding sexual orientation. In the very near future, the School District will publish abrochure on this. (If you want some brochures at your site, email Greg Kitchen.) There are alsoplans to bring in a variety of guest speakers. Over the last 3 years the School District has workedwith SCRD on the emergency preparedness plan and worked with RMCP over safe schools andlockdown procedures. Hopefully by January information will be posted to the SD46 websiteregarding what to do in emergencies such as lockdowns, etc. A teacher, David Barnum, isresponsible for looking at the grade 7 to 8 transition, and is working with other teachers aiming tobuild confidence for youth in that transition.
A discussion ensued on youth involvement in elections, and increasing youth awareness of andinvolvement in the local political process.
i. FORCE Society for Kids Mental Health — Victoria Keddis — Recently gave a presentation at GibsonsElementary on building resiliency and helping children manage anxiety.

2. Roundtable Introductions
3. Motion to adopt the minutes of Friday, November 28, 2014
The November 28, 2014 meeting minutes were adopted as circulated.
4. Chair’s Report – Greg Russell
Greg commented on the poor turnout for the November meeting, and indicated he wished to
confirm that there is still interest in continuing these meetings. He remarked that it would be nice
to see more faces at the meetings, and asked that members let their associates know about them.
This committee started many years ago when the superintendent of schools and RCMP had an
idea of sharing information to address youth issues.
The Youth Outreach Worker Program was a result of action of this committee, and will be
celebrating its tenth anniversary soon. A subcommittee of the SCYAAC formed in 2005 to develop
a youth outreach program; various people in local government stepped up to fund the program. It
is one of the few in the province that is funded locally, with no provincial government support –
something we can take great pride in as a community.
Alice Lutes commented on the value of this committee for elected officials in accessing
information about youth/youth services in the community; the information also helps support
youth funding.

Action: Ted will contact people on the email list to inquire if they wish to receive the minutes and
stay on the list; and barriers to meeting attendance, and report back at the next meeting.
5. Youth Outreach Worker Program Update – Johanna Marion
Have been having a team of two out until 11 pm Friday nights; have noticed a lot going on around
10 or 11 pm. There have been lots of youth in parks, beaches, at Tim Horton’s, McDonald’s, where
YOW staff has been promoting the program and doing referrals. Youth have been coming to Youth
Outreach Workers, inquiring about when the youth centre is open. Youth Outreach phone line is
available 24/7: 604-741-1129. The Team Leader has been getting a lot of calls from parents. Youth
Outreach has a flyer and key lights. They continue to run the safe ride program; however it is not a
taxi service but the last option. Johanna will be going on maternity leave in two weeks and has
really enjoyed her year as Team Leader. Interviews for a replacement are being conducted.
6. Youth Centres Update
Gibsons Youth Centre – Johanna Marion
February 13 is Johanna’s last day, her incoming replacement is a woman named Sam Talbot.
Tween program is going well, numbers keep increasing; Tuesday & Saturday, around 10-20 kids,
age 10-13 attend each time and are very keen and eager. A group is turning 13 this spring, and
Johanna hopes they will step up as leaders at the Youth Centre. Teen days are Thursday and
Friday. There is a dinner program Friday, with 12-13 having dinner. It is completely youth-run for
dinner; usually a youth worker buys groceries with them. Wednesday is really slow, max 5 kids,
usually closer to 2. Staff have conducted an information survey, trying to find some options for
that night, and are receiving a lot of positive parent feedback from Tween parents. A proper stove
is being installed; allowing more baking, teaching nutrition and cooking. More promotion will be
happening in the schools, including the elementary schools. Johanna will be back at the Youth
Centre February 15, 2016.
Sechelt Youth Centre – Suzanna Lodewijk
Suzanna has been back since beginning of January, after closing for the Christmas holidays. Staff
are putting a focus on working on boundaries and responsibilities with the tweens, e.g. having the
kids do inventory and label all of the new sports equipment, and having them look after it. Gym
time is very popular with this group. There are bullying issues among the tween group coming
from the school and bussing; staff will focus on the issue through February. A monthly schedule is
available for distribution, Suzanna passed around a sign up list for those interested in receiving it
electronically. Tweens free drop-in takes place Monday & Thursday, 2:30-5:00pm, and Friday
night is teen drop-in from 3:00-6:00pm. Teen numbers are down so staff will go to Chatelech or
the Alternate Schools to find out what they are looking for/needs are, as well as doing outreach at
different elementary schools each week to spend lunch hour with kids. There is lots of relationship
building going on. SYC will be doing the concession and will help supervise the SCRD pre-teen
dance on February 21. Staff are looking to do a heart to heart talk with teens on the last Friday of
every month, with the possibility of having a panel of community members there; contact Suzanna
if you have anything you would like to offer.

7. Roundtable Agency Update
a. District of Sechelt – Alice Lutes and Doug Wright – A new council was sworn in in December;
committees have been sorted. Alice is the representative on this committee, and Doug Wright,
who has a background in the school system, is the alternate.
b. Sechelt Community Schools – Ted Chisholm – Starting to put a focus on transitions with grade 7s
to help prepare for high school. Helped coordinate a Safe Online Education Society presentation
for gr. 6’s and 7’s, and parents; had about 40 parents show up. The presenter focused on kids and
adults being responsible citizens online, and that with focus, people can create a caring online
environment. Ted is working with grades 6 and 7 at Davis Bay and grade 7 at Kinnikinnick doing
team building, working on social emotional learning and transition to high school.
c. Sunshine Coast Regional District Recreation – Tiffany Vellios – Halfmoon Bay teen night @ HMB
Elementary for grades 6-8 will run to end of March, with two staff on site. HMB elementary
student council is running the concession; have access to gym and library, $5 drop-in. Neon Lights
pre-teen dance, grades 5-7, Feb 21 at the Sunshine Coast Arena community room; are working
with Sechelt Community Schools, $7. New program: Friday night Girls Night at SAC and GACC, age
9-12 (five sessions are scheduled for the next season). Tonight is the first one in Sechelt, 6:00-8:30.
When at the pool, will go swimming; when at arena will go skating. Have contracted staff for the
program. Will also have volunteers there. High Five training is includes Principles of Healthy
Childhood Development for front line workers, and evaluation tools for Supervisors; SCRD is an
accredited High Five organization. Ted and Tiffany are in the process of becoming certified trainers
to train staff, and volunteers. Family Day is coming February 9 and includes free skating and
swimming (see details on SCRD website). All of the Pro-D Day camps have been filling. Junior
squash in Gibsons is running for beginners and intermediate levels, and registration is ongoing.
Adrianne Gadd is working on youth orientations for fitness room for youth aged 13-18. Youth
working out on their own need an orientation with one of SCRD Rec’s personal trainers. Youth
involvement has dramatically increased with the implementation of My Pass. If a parent in the
household has a My Pass, the youth My Pass costs $39 per year (otherwise youth costs $99/year).
Through a RBC Learn to Play grant, the SCRD is offering free lessons to School District #46 grade 9s
to learn to skate.
d. Gibsons Area Community Schools – Sue Wilson – The name of Gibsons and Elphinstone
Community School has been changed to Gibsons Area Community Schools. Circle training has been
done with staff; there has been ongoing training to raise effectiveness. Community garden is
getting on its way at Gibsons Elementary; not sure if it will happen before end of year, as right now
it is a parking lot for staff. A local garden committee has shown interest in being involved.
e. Community Dietician, VCH – Meghan Molnar – Has been working with school counselors
especially elementary, and offering body image and healthy eating workshops for parents. Hope to
get girls groups working on self-esteem. Next week is provincial Eating Disorders Awareness Week.
Meghan is working with Emily Davies to do presentations or information displays about eating
disorders. A lot of teens get concerned about what they look like; it has a huge impact on how
they live, eat, exercise. She will be doing a display at Gibsons Public Library: “Love our bodies, Love
ourselves”. Will do talk for parents at Davis Bay on February 4: “Fueling your mind and body”
about what parents can do to encourage healthy body and self-image. Meghan is available to
come into youth centres, talk about nutrition, do shopping tours, etc.
f. Public Health, VCH – Carol McGuire – Public Health received McCreary Survey local results with
2014 data recently. The survey is done in schools, administered by public health; can be grade 7-
16
Sunshine Coast Youth Action and Awareness Committee Meeting Minutes, January 30, 2015
4/5
12. The results include School Districts 46-49 (West Vancouver, North Vancouver, Sea to Sky,
Central Coast). McCreary would like to do Next Steps project again, have two facilitators come,
meet with students, present data, and have students come up with a project. Carol will continue
to be the main contact support for students, and is open to ideas, feedback. Central Coast was not
in the last data, which will shift the results a bit from previous surveys. There were lots of positives
and strengths, including connectedness with schools and community. Contact Carol McGuire if you
have any questions: phone 604-885-8702, fax 604-885-9725, or [email protected].
g. Mental Health and Addictions Services – Frances Ardron – Recently MH&A decided it will no
longer accept youth admissions in psychiatric unit at St. Mary’s, and Frances has been called to the
emergency room to see youth/do crisis counselling. There is nowhere on the coast to put kids with
psychiatric issues. Frances has been trying to mediate that. Often issues relate to overdoses or
attempted suicides. Have to send kids to Vancouver; if after hours, kids are placed in a safe room
(cell-like room with no windows) overnight. Issue with morphine recently, kids stealing it from
their parent’s prescription. Kids have been snorting and selling it, and mixing it with alcohol.
Frances has been trying to enhance awareness about that. There is some concern in Pender
Harbour with 13 year olds hanging out with 20 year olds, drinking, smoking, and partying. There is
pressure for grade 8s to take part in that culture. Online issues between communities, including
sexting and sending of nude pictures have been occurring, and Frances has urged girls not to send
naked pictures of themselves, nor feel pressure to be sexy and attractive. In Pender Harbour,
Frances is a doing monthly LGBTQ get together, and a weekly Gay Strait Alliance (GSA) meeting in
Gibsons. There are a lot more people coming out, girls especially. At Chatelech a teacher does the
GSA. In Gibsons there is more of an accepting atmosphere around it; kids know there is a safe
place to hang out. Will do a session in Alt Schools focusing on wellness, drug use, anxiety,
depression, resilience; they are getting class credit for it. Will do a walking tour of Sechelt looking
at different agencies/resources. A practicum student at the hospital is doing a degree in Social
Work and is interested in shadowing Frances, and may be here at the next meeting.
h. School District No. 46 – Greg Russell – The School District is about to engage on redevelopment of
its strategic plan. Will have a community forum at Chatelech on March 9, 4:30pm to 6:30pm,
which will include presentations, and information tables. Greg hopes to have the student
leadership team help host. People in the community, local government, and ministries will be
invited. The Board wants community input on what the School District should do over the next
four years. More information at next meeting.
i. Sunshine Coast Community Services – Valerie MacLean – Is thrilled to be in the community and to
be working for SCCS. She is in awe at how engaged this community is, and is loving learning about
the community and the organization itself.
j. Sunshine Coast Community Services – Ron Depner – Message from Roberts Creek Community
School: Nights Alive is back on Friday nights; hired two staff this week. Ron acknowledged the
incredible work of Johanna Marion as Coordinator of the Youth Outreach Worker program this
year, who has done an “outstanding” and “spectacular job”. (There was a round of applause for
Johanna and her contributions from those present.) Now organizers are trying to figure out what is
next. Noting it is the last year of the Memorandum of Understanding in funding the YOW program,
Ron suggested this might be the time to have an organization review of what we’d like to see,
receive input, what works, ask bigger questions about where we want to go. The competition
closing date has closed for the YOW Team Leader; there are a few potential candidates. More
information at next meeting.

k. RCMP – Kevin Shepherd – Regarding youth with social media sending out images: Safe Online
presentation was amazing. Most kids in grades 6 and 7 have hand held devices. Kevin has talked to
SD 46 Assistant Superintendent Greg Kitchen about banning the cell phone in schools. Things
exploded in November in social media. Kevin has done a lot of violent risk threat assessments over
past few months related to safety and security of the students in the school or community. Some
of the students have been under care of psychiatrists from these issues. In March, four RCMP staff
will go to Oshawa for the Violent Risk Threat Assessment train the trainer. They want to run the
training monthly. Youth Academy: two from the coast are going to Chilliwack for 8 days over
spring break. HEROS Hockey every Friday 2:00-5:30pm is a lot of fun (for grades 5-7; grade 8-9
mentors; no upper age limit). HEROS: Hockey Education Reaching Out Society is in every NHL city
and the Sunshine Coast. Is on the coast because TELUS has provided $1 million. Principals make
referrals to the program. Kids can join; don’t turn any one away. Contact Kevin or school principal.
Kids were taken to SportChek in West Vancouver and were completely outfitted (spent $25,000).
Youth probation stats on the coast are really down; there is currently one on youth probation.
Previously this has been up around 30. Restorative Justice Board referrals are way down. Kevin
discussed the background of the new RCMP bosses on the coast. Since the shootings at Ottawa
cenotaph and in Moncton, RCMP have had changes in gear. In February, Kevin will go for a week of
Immediate Action Rapid Deployment training in Chilliwack where he will be an instructor.
There was discussion about the issue of a lack of accommodation at the hospital for youth with
psychiatric issues and the care for youth with mental health issues on the Sunshine Coast.
