Co-operative Young Leaders, a program of the Ontario Co-operative Association, is a week-long camp bringing young people together from all across Ontario to learn about, and practice, communication and leadership through co operative activities.  Since its inception in 1967, more than 2500 young people have gone through Ontario co-operative young leaders programs.

The Golden Horseshoe Co-operative Housing Federation  sponsors a housing co-op youth (age 14 to 18) to attend the Co-op Young Leaders Camp each Summer and has continued to do so since 1998.

Some of our winners have gone on to become facilitators at the camp.

Individual housing co-ops can also sponsor one of their own youth.
