Youth Military Cadet Programs

A youth leadership program administered by the Canadian Armed Forces which has three core components: Army Cadets, Air Cadets and Sea Cadets. The program is designed to teach young people age 12 to 18 the value of citizenship, leadership, service to the community, personal responsibility, and a sense of accomplishment, while promoting self-esteem, teamwork and self-discipline. In addition to weekly activities during the school year, the summer programs provide opportunities for travel and the chance to participate in inter-provincial and international exchanges. Military cadet programs also introduce young people to possible careers in the military.
