Promoting youth development

Our mission

Comité Jeunesse La Presqu’Île (CJLP) is an organization that aids in the development of vulnerable youth through outreach programs. We create an atmosphere of trust in order to prevent juvenile delinquency, while stimulating the development of young people’s creativity and self-expression.

Our programs

promoting youth development and community goodwill

Creating positive relationships

A summer evening event for teens that spend a lot of time in our parks. Each summer, we reach out to approximately 300 youths.

Creating positive settings

A two-pronged project aimed at combating illegal graffiti by reducing its frequency and the amount of time it’s on display.

Creating positive environments

Raising awareness of municipal regulations in our parks and bicycle lanes through bike patrols, in partnership with the Quebec Provincial Police (Sûreté du Québec).

Creating positive works

Workshops for creating items from recycled and repurposed materials, offered as an extracurricular activity at high schools in the Vaudreuil-Soulanges area.

Help us achieve our mission

Creating positive experiences

The goal of our organization is twofold:

To address youth-related needs and problems by organizing workshops, focus groups, seminars, patrols and social interaction activities encouraging youth participation;
To raise public awareness of the problems facing today’s youths by organizing workshops, conferences and focus groups promoting interaction between youths, parents and other adults.
