It takes a village! 🏡 Did you know there are 40 Developmental Assets that youth need to grow up healthy, caring, and responsible? The best part? Anyone can help build them! A simple "how is your day going?" to a neighborhood youth can strengthen an asset. #sparcreddeer

Bill 28 could put extra strain on Alberta libraries, requiring big changes without extra funding. Smaller libraries may struggle to keep up.
