As directed by the 2010/2011 Community Action Toward Children's Health Strategic Plan, CATCH is initiating a look at Child Friendly Communities designation for the Central Okanagan.
This year, one of CATCH's goals is to support Central Okanagan communities to become more child friendly. We will look at what a child friendly community looks and feels like. Possible themes include neighbourhoods, mobility, places, workplaces and public spaces. Many communities in the province and throughout the world are c urrently involved in the process of creating Child Friendly Communities and some examples can be found on our Child Friendly Communities menu tab.
If you would like to join in on the discussion, please click on the five question survey found below. Thank you.
