  • Frequently Asked Questions

This campaign is meant to meet you where you are at!

That could look like:
- When attending the meetings, and events attend in the way that speaks to you.
- Camera's for zoom meetings are optional, intentional participation is encouraged.
- If you have an issue with the way anything happens, you are very much encouraged to approach me and we can create a container to chat together that's grounded in respect and kindness.

What does a campaign organizer do?
My role is to offer you activities that build your capacity in this social movement.

What does Fostering Change do?

Our collective goal is to change the landscape of transitions from care in BC through lobbying activities.

What is the campaign asking for?
-An automatic enrollment into Agreements with Young Adults post-majority support program upon leaving government care. (Universal support)
-Dependable, price indexed financial resources that pay rent, food, hygiene, tuition and start up costs. (Comprehensive support)

Are campaign activities paid?
Fostering Change as a campaign offers honorarium to support your attendance in team meetings, workshops, presentations and relevant peer networking 

How much will I receive?
You will be supported in team meetings and workshops at living wage per hour
i.e 3 hour workshop (3 hours = $60)

Not every activity is a paid activity, we will be clear on which ones those are before you attend.

How do I get the money?
We offer several ways to get you the support we offer!
- e-transfer
- mail 
- in person drop off (After August 2021 due to COVID restrictions)

Can I have my meeting support money ahead of the meeting?
We do not offer this as an option. 

Can you send me food? Or lend me money?
We do not offer the option to send food through Skip, DoorDash or any other food delivery service. We also do not offer the option of grocery or finance drop off before meetings or any other time.

We are happy to point you in the direction of a youth serving agency that might be able to help.
