CCSBC Program Successes: Youth wanted to promote the benefits of cycling as a form of transit in the City of Prince George. They used survey data to inform a feasibility study on the implementation of a bike share program in PG, which they plan to present to City Council. #biking

We would like to acknowledge the achievement of Eco Living Community for becoming a non-profit! The organization aims to collaborate with, and within, communities throughout Northern BC to implement climate solutions and build capacity for self-sufficiency! 🙌 #ecoliving
So we changed our name, but what's actually different? Since becoming a non-profit, we decided to set a vision, mission, and three goals to help guide our events and the decisions we make when interacting with our communities. See what we hope ELC and its impact will look like!
