YORKTON UNDERSTANDING MINDS OF MANY YOUTH (Y.U.M.M.Y.)  Recently, the Yorkton Alliance of Asset Champions has partnered with the city of Yorkton to develop a Youth Coalition to give input to city council on issues that affect youth. A planning committee has been developed and a name has been picked: Y.U.M.M.Y. (Yorkton Understanding Minds of Many Youth). The group which is currently made up of City staff, youth and and members of the Yorkton Alliance of Asset Champions have been using their time constructively to devlop the coalition, promote to other youth in the community and plan a future youth summit in the city. Check back often for Y.U.M.M.Y. updates!

Positive Tickets are issued to youth for performing good deeds or staying out of trouble. The ticket is the gateway to a relationship between a youth and an adult role model.
