Thanks to the Secrétariat à la jeunesse, the Local Youth Actions Funding (LYAF) is a $150,000 grant available to the 14 communities of Nunavik and Chisasibi to encourage youth to start local initiatives for their fellow youth. The LYAF supports and promotes projects targeting youth aged 15 to 35 that transfer Inuit culture, build self-esteem, develop leadership skills, enhance everyday life or share information and educational opportunities.
