This toolkit is co-developed by CYEI.

The OY Works toolkit has been developed by the Calgary Youth Employment Initiative (CYEI). CYEI is a collaboration focused on improving employment outcomes for Opportunity Youth. This work is guided by the Collaborative Funders’ Table (CFT) – a unique partnership that brings together funders from different sectors. The CFT members include Burns Memorial Fund, the Calgary Foundation, the City of Calgary, HRJ Consulting Ltd., JPMorgan Chase Foundation, the RBC Foundation, and the United Way of Calgary and Area. The CFT leads the CYEI with a focus on shared learning, investing in communities, connecting youth and youth-serving agencies with employers, and exploring systemic changes to the employment ecosystem in Calgary.

CYEI recognizes the Chartered Professionals in Human Resources of Alberta (CPHR Alberta) for their valuable partnership throughout this project.
