Fédération de la jeunesse franco-ontarienne (FESFO)

The Federation of Francophone youth (FESFO) was created in 1975 by young people who wanted to "ensure that the Franco-Ontarian youth participate fully in the development of his community."

FESFO is the representation of young francophones who attend one of the 97 francophone high schools in Ontario. Led by the Council representative, a provincial youth council elected at its Annual General Meeting, FESFO informs, educates and mobilizes thousands of young people so that their voices and needs are heard from different makers.

The  FESFO community is recognized and used by the Ministry of Education of Ontario, the Canadian Association for the United Nations, Canadian Heritage and the Ontario Trillium Foundation.
