What is AT-CURA?

Acting Together (AT) is a federally funded project aiming to identify factors that protect youth from gang involvement and to support community resilience-promoting initiatives. The project, led by Kwantlen Polytechnic University in Surrey, B.C., Canada has brought together 12 community partner organizations and nine academic researchers from four post-secondary institutions.

"The project has given me the opportunity to connect with community members and agencies, learn more about them, and has also helped create collaborative efforts to address youth violence that previously did not exist."
