This project evaluated the Brotherhood of St. Laurence’s (BSL) ConnectYA platform in collaboration with the Youth Alliance (YA). Together, we co-developed and performed a pilot project on the platform to gain user feedback, and to create content and community. We determined the necessity of website development and engaging content for the platform to continue. With this feedback, we developed a plan with the core team outlining steps to ensure future success on the platform.
