Learning Research Service Volunteer Engagement

This research project involved six rural communities on Prince Edward Island: O’Leary, Lennox Island, Kensington, Rustico, Montague, and Souris. In each of these communities, focus groups were held to learn about health issues concerning the children and youth of that community. These focus group results have been analyzed and validated by an Advocacy Group of community leaders. After the Advocacy Group has identified a priority health issue, community working groups are formed to develop initiatives that address the priority.
