Cool Communities - Cool Companies Project

This project is about creating an environment in southwest Saskatchewan that will attract and retain young talent. The Action Swift Current Young Professionals Network, Action Swift Current, and the Action Southwest Business Networks Coalition are instigating a project designed to create an environment that is conducive to the needs of young professionals. This environment will have positive economic spin-offs, as it will help to attract and retain skilled and unskilled labour to the southwest region of Saskatchewan.

Status: A committee has recently been formed and a funding proposal drafted. Proposal will be put forward for funding support.
