Objective(s): To obtain information about how teenagers feel about social problems that they face and possible means to solve these problems; to determine the types of abuse experienced by teenagers.
Project Description: The Territorial Government has stated that it would like to see zero tolerance towards violence in the family and that there should be more input from youth in regards to their feelings on what affects them. Teens in Sir John Franklin and St. Patrick High Schools will be asked to participate in a questionnaire on abuse. This information will be used to assess the issues that teens face. This study is the researcher's social work practicum in Arctic College.
