Amadeusz, Etobicoke, ON

Amadeusz, guiding principles and techniques for facilitating alternative education programs for youth in Toronto, was used to launch the Look At My Life Project in 2009. The Look At My Life Project is dedicated to social justice with an objective to enhance and advance the futures of incarcerated young people by influencing public policy and sharing our best practices with stakeholders and government alike. Our objectives are to provide opportunities for young people remanded to custody and increase educational achievement levels so they are better prepared to create positive change within their own lives. In doing so, the Look At My Life Project serves individuals from various communities across the City of Toronto and has developed partnerships with three detention centres in Toronto and the Vanier Centre For Women in Milton.
