One of the objectives of the IAA is to partner with local organizations to provide meaningful community outreach opportunities for our alumni. On Monday April 6th, the IAA hosted its first Community Outreach event with the Yonge Street Mission for high potential youth in the organization’s Leaders in Training (LIT) Program. The event consisted of a panel discussion of INROADS alumni who generously volunteered their time to share information about career backgrounds and answer questions from the youth in attendance about post-secondary education and planning their careers. Our alumni included Shane Heywood, Anton Katipunan, Thi Khuat, Joanne St. Bernard and Konata Lake.

The event was a great success and received positive feedback from the Yonge Street Mission Youth program directors and alumni in attendance. The IAA would like to extend our sincere appreciation to the alumni that volunteered their time and contributing to our successful launch of our Community Relations portfolio.
We look forward to hosting future community events and providing additional opportunities for our alumni to give back to the community.
