Ontario Youth Parliament is a life-changing experience.
We strive to make that experience accessible for all youth.
We strive to make that experience accessible for all youth.
As part of that commitment, we have a fund that is meant to assist those who would otherwise not be able to attend due to financial constraints.
Once registration is live, applications and deadlines will be published here.
The maximum bursary is the registration fee minus the deposit amount. Please keep in mind that only requesting the funding you need will allow for more applicants to receive funding.
To be eligible, the applicant must:
Be eligible to attend OYP.
Complete the Registration Form and Bursary Application Form.
Pay the registration deposit.
Include one reference to confirm the financial need of the applicant.
If you have any questions about the bursary or application process, email the OYPA Privacy Officer. All applications are confidential and will be reviewed only by the OYPA Board of Directors.
Some delegates have been able to secure funding to attend OYP through local service clubs - Rotary, Lions, Kin, etc. or their church, temple, synagogue, or mosque. We are working on some materials to help you apply to these groups. Stay tuned!
