"Young Adult Retention and Engagement in Minden Hills","Sarah Cumming
Lindsay Dixon","Township of Minden Hills, Emily Stonehouse","Derya Tarhan, International Development Studies",4884,2020,on-line,"Township of Minden Hills","Youth Retention & Engagement",,"Over 2019-20, Fourth Year Trent International Development Studies (IDST) students Sarah Cumming and Lindsay Dixon undertook a full-term, large-scale research project on how to better engage and retain the young adult population in Minden Hills.
Hosted by the Township of Minden Hills (Emily Stonehouse) and supervised by IDST faculty Derya Terhan, students gathered and analyzed data from their literature review, a 2019 local community consultation, an online survey and several telephone surveys.
This report was designed to equip the Township of Minden Hills with a foundation for up-to-date research and to suggest initiatives as support for change.
Highlights from the Study:
· The top four factors for the study participants in deciding where to live were Employment, Family Ties, the Physical Environment and Housing;
· 59% of participants felt engaged in the community of Minden Hills and the largest group within that (46%), only felt somewhat engaged;
· Leaving their community to go to high school in Haliburton means young adults in other townships may start feeling disconnected from an early age;
· Recreational programming for young adults was seen as limited, and often geared towards the senior population and during working hours;
· A shortage of evening entertainment activities led to feelings of isolation;
· There is a lack of formal support systems for youth employment in the County;
· Increased internet access was identified by several survey participants in the open-ended questions - as “what is important to this age group is the ability to network easily”;
· While literature findings did not find it to be a significant factor in attracting young adults, study participants felt as though Minden Hill’s natural beauty and rural location had a positive influence in their decision where to live.
Page 35 of the report includes a table of recommendations that the Township of Minden Hills can consider in their strategic planning going forward.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"CBR,employment,engagement,family,housing,Minden Hills,Trent University,young adults,youth",https://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/6a4a550af23f9721daefd255f3449ed8.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

A literature review of apprenticeship programming both local and far-reaching introduces the subject and is followed by a detailed description of the research methodology employed. Results are presented organized around a demographic profile, youth perceptions of trades, and possible barriers to programming. Details of services and programs available to youth interested in apprenticeships are documented. A discussion of results and recommendations both for youth and community conclude the paper.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"apprenticeship,community,Economic Studies,employment,Social and Health Studies,youth",,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

The research was conducted over the 2003-2004 academic year and begins with a literature review of employment opportunities offered on an international, national, provincial, and county scale. Primary research, collected through telephone surveys with local employers, sets out to determine: what employers know about apprentice programs in the trades, which businesses currently offer such opportunities, what barriers exist to such programming, and what employers are looking for in apprenticeship training. Results are presented and analyzed and recommendations proposed to better facilitate such training programs.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"apprenticeship,Economic Studies,employment,Social and Health Studies,social determinants,youth",,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

Promote/create co-op/entrepreneurship opportunities for students that provide life experience and value for future employment opportunities. Promote the development of community skills and expertise that entices higher income employment to the area.","The counties of Northumberland, Haliburton, Peterborough and Kawartha Lakes have expressed concerns about youth out migration. Each of the four counties had major regional differences with Haliburton being an exception in most cases. The causes of youth out migration were linked to factors such as lack of employment, post secondary education, and the relationship between the youth and their community. It was found that there was an abundance of services available to the youth that were being underutilized. When analyzing what entices youth to return to their community four common trends was found: attachment to family and community, availability of jobs in the community, financial situation and relationships. These findings are useful when creating strategies in sustaining and increasing the community’s population.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"Economic Studies,education,employment,youth",https://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/126c136dfa9d25b9a913489fbb9b8203.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0
