Every young person in Alberta has rights—and it’s important to know what they are. The rights booklets from the Office of the Child and Youth Advocate (OCYA) make those rights easy to understand.
The booklets explain:
1. What rights mean
2. Children and young people’s specific rights, like safety, education, health care, culture, and having a say in decisions about your life
3. How rights show up in everyday life
They’re written in clear, youth-friendly language so they can feel confident, speak up, and get support when they need it.
