Hidden stories of York Region is a podcast series that will highlight the historical and current realities of how communities in York Region formed, settled, and continue to exist today. We believe there's a gap in this knowledge area that has impacted how community issues have been addressed. Our initiative will highlight community assets and needs. We're hoping by designing, piloting, and marketing, this podcast that residents, educators, government businesses, community leaders, and youth will enhance their awareness of what's happening across the region and get involved to advocate and act for change.
