Réunir Réussir launches funding platform aimed at keeping young Quebecers in school

On August 24, 2010, the organization Réunir Réussir, a joint initiative of the Quebec government Secrétariat à la jeunesse and the Lucie and André Chagnon Foudation, launched its funding platform to promote student retention in Quebec high schools. Over the next five years, the organization will focus on providing support for actions initiated through regional and local mobilization. Although there has already been some improvement, close to 30 % of young people under 20 are still dropping out of high school before they graduate !
