For the last 48 years Trellis has partnered with The Calgary Exhibition and Stampede to host a Youth Work Experience Program for over 250 youth ages 13 to 24, along with 40 adult supervisors. With the provincial announcement on May 26th, we are moving forward with plans to offer our Stampede Youth Work Experience Program this year based on direction from Alberta Health Services (AHS) and the City of Calgary. The safety of the youth and staff will always remain at the forefront and we will continue to adapt our planning and response in collaboration with AHS, the City of Calgary and the Stampede.

Trellis has been supporting the community and offering in-person programming throughout the pandemic under strict COVID-19 health and safety directives and in accordance with AHS guidelines. With that, we believe that Trellis is the best prepared to host this opportunity and provide a positive and safe experience for the youth we serve.
