Gathering Our Voices to Return in 2022

Media Release

 

GOV is co-hosted by the Provincial Aboriginal Youth Council (PAYC), the BC Association of Aboriginal Friendship Centres (BCAAFC), and the local Friendship Centre each year. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, organizers have made the decision to postpone GOV until 2022 to ensure a safe return.

 

Please follow the GOV social media accounts for updates on virtual events in 2021.

 

Thank you to the youth, staff, volunteers, partners, and funders who come together to make GOV a huge success. GOV2022 will be stronger than ever!

We can’t wait to be together again!
