The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia
3rd Session
42nd Parliament
A
Thank
you,
mr
speaker:
security
community
consistency,
unconditional
love,
culture.
These
are
things
that
young
people
who
have
been
in
care
have
often
missed
parental
modeling,
long-term
relationships.
These
are
all
things
that
impact
a
young
person
as
they
move
into
adulthood
and
throughout
their
life
in
the
media.
A
This
group
was
created
by
a
group
of
young
people
who
had
been
in
care
in
1993
as
they
recognized
that
there
are
special
and
unique
needs,
and
these
young
people
need
to
have
arms
wrapped
around
them
and
need
to
be
supported
as
they
go
through
their
unique
journeys
tonight,
starting
at
6
p.m.
The
federation
of
bc,
youth
and
care
networks
will
be
hosting
an
online
event
where
you
can
discover
the
amazing
history
of
bc,
child
and
youth
and
care
week
and
watch
as
they
honor.
A
This
year's
recognition
award
recipients
to
register
go
to
their
website
got
to
do
that
quickly
because
it's
tonight,
you'll
be
inspired
by
the
awesomeness
of
children
and
youth
in
care
and
alumni
of
care
and
you'll
have
an
opportunity
to
hear
from
them.
If
you
aren't
or
you
weren't
a
kid
in
care,
you
can
still
be
an
ally
and
support
this
group.
You
can
also
consider
being
an
awesome,
foster
parent
or
a
guardian.
So
thank
you
very
much
and
here's
to
celebrate
all
the
amazing
children
who
have
been
in
care
and
and
are
awesome.
Thank
you.
