Being a part of RISE not only means helping to create change, but also it allows you to hear multiple points of view and understand differences in opinion. This is important when dealing with your community because your view won't be as narrow-minded.
I am super passionate about social issues and addressing inequalities. I have so much faith in humanity and I want to be part of changing the world and making it a better place. I love that RISE gives young people in Canada the resources the go out into the world and try to rectify the issues we recognize in our society.
I joined RISE to learn how to engage my peers and show them that politics is not only interesting, but a part of our everyday life, and something that we, as young people, have a say in!
I want to make a change, communicate a message. I want to learn how to initiate projects and where to find the right resources.
