Youth Research And Evaluation EXchange

The Youth Research and Evaluation eXchange (YouthREX) is a province-wide initiative based at York University with five regional Hubs across Ontario that promote the integration of research evidence and evaluation in the development and delivery of Ontario’s youth programs. A key part of YouthREX's efforts and commitment to youth wellbeing is www.exchange.youthrex.com, a online hub where anyone can find youth development knowledge in accessible formats from research, practice and lived experiences together in one online space. The eXchange has been designed to make it easier for anyone interested in youth wellbeing to strengthen and enhance their work with youth. About YouthREX Hubs: YouthREX regional hubs, located at Carleton University (Eastern Hub), Laurentian University (Northeastern Hub), King's College Western University (Southwestern Hub), Lakehead University (Northwestern Hub) and York University (Central Hub) engage local grassroots youth serving organizations, academic partners, youth and policy stakeholders in capacity building, knowledge mobilization, research and evaluation opportunities. YouthREX is primarily funded by the Ontario Ministry of Children and Youth Services with extensive contributions from York University and the four YouthREX partner universities.
