About OAYEC
OAYEC supports and advocates for a sustainable youth employment delivery network in Ontario.
Through supporting the work of local youth employment centres across Ontario, OAYEC aims to help young people find and maintain meaningful employment that will help improve the quality of their lives.
Since 1988, the Ontario Association of Youth Employment Centres and our network of over 70 youth employment agencies have been committed to delivering accessible, high quality, outcomes-based employment services to young people to assist them in reaching their employment and life goals.
