About the Don Bosco Youth Leadership Centre
The Don Bosco Youth Leadership Centre (DBYLC or YLC) was founded in 1997. It is a non-profit youth community centre that reaches out annually to over 1000 children, youth, and families in the East end of Montreal. Named after Saint John Bosco, a universally recognized educator and evangelizer of the young, the DBYLC strives to follow in his footsteps.
The mission of the DBYLC is to foster the development of good and kind young people and positive leaders. This mission is carried out through a variety of youth activities and events that have as their finality education, prevention, and leadership training. Don Bosco used to say: “Give the most to those who have the least.” The DBYLC is particularly attentive to needier youth: those from poorer families, in dysfunctional family settings, or influenced by negative and harmful peer influences.’’
