METRAC wishes you a very happy and inspiring International Youth Day!

This year, the UN’s theme for Int’l Youth Day is “Different Contexts, Common Aspirations.”

This theme captures the fact that “while young people’s lives are shaped by different national and local realities, their aspirations are remarkably similar. Across countries and communities, young people seek dignity, opportunity, meaningful participation, decent work, quality education, and a sustainable future.”

As METRAC reflects on this important day, we want to give a very special shoutout to the . As part of METRAC’s programming, ReAct has been dedicated to empowering youth at a grassroots level, helping young people to access opportunities and pursue bright, sustainable futures for themselves and their communities.

From supporting young people in developing leadership skills, to providing accessible education on financial literacy, to creating safe spaces to talk about consent and healthy relationships, ReAct’s impact has been powerful and lasting.

We’re so incredibly proud of and all the young people who inspire our work every day!

What would we do without our friends? 🫂💟

In celebrating International Friendship Day on July 30, we’re reminded to send a little extra love and appreciation to the people who make us laugh, who comfort and uplift us, and who share our favourite memories.

Friendship makes our communities stronger, our hearts fuller and our lives richer. We hope you have a wonderful day celebrating with your friends!

Everyone has a story, or knows someone who has a story, of being impacted gender based violence.💗💜

METRAC is so grateful for the passion, enthusiasm, and generosity of all the runners, walkers, organizers and volunteers who came out to Finish The Run! 💗🏃🏽‍♀️

Coming together in solidarity against gender-based violence means reclaiming our spaces, our sense of safety, and our joy: both in running and in everyday life.

Another huge thank you to the lovely community members, including the amazing Finish The Run founder, SRB, who spoke with us for this video:

On July 24, we recognize the International Day of Self-Care.

The date 7/24 is symbolic. It stands as a reminder that rest, mental wellbeing, personal growth and joy are essential: 24 hours, 7 days a week.

Still, the ability to prioritize self-care is not equally shared. Systemic barriers to fair and equal pay, safety, and other resources persist. Physical, mental and emotional labour often goes unrecognized. Everyone should have access to the resources that allow them not just to survive, but to thrive.

To all the women, youth, BIPOC and 2SLGBTQIA+ folks who are nurturing your communities, leading in your workplace, and caring for your families and loved ones:

We see you. We’re so proud of you. Take care of yourself. 💗💜

Last week’s Golf Challenge was a sunny day filled with enriching conversations, friendly competitive banter and an incredible show of support from the IAHSS Ontario Chapter. ⛳️🏌️‍♂️

We are so grateful to all the golfers, organizers, volunteers, and community members who gave their time and made generous donations toward our work.

The funds raised from our third and final year with the tournament will support METRAC as we continue to rise to the needs of the community we serve, taking action against harassment, discrimination and gender-based violence across Ontario.

The incredible founder of Finish the Run Toronto, SarahRose Black, features on recent episodes from each show, discussing practical tips for running safety, her journey as an advocate against gender-based violence, and how she’s helping to empower athletes and the wider community to reclaim their joy on the roads, trails and in races.

We hope to see you come out to the run this Saturday! 🏃‍♀️💜
