Canadian Youth for Choice (CYC) is a pro-choice youth advocacy group based in Ottawa, Ontario.[1][2] The group, which is the first of its kind in Canada,[3] advocates for the sexual and reproductive rights of people between the ages of 13 and 30.[2]
CYC work with the goal of increasing access to information and services relating to reproductive health for all Canadian youth. They have written a "Canadian Charter of Sexual and Reproductive Rights of Youth" and petitioned the House of Commons of Canada to pass it into law.[2][3]
Four members of Canadian Youth for Choice participated in a cross-country tour designed to provide sex education in the summer of 2007.[1][2]
