Pug Pharm’s award-winning Picnic™

engine has been selected to power the launch of AgedOut.com, an online engagement platform with information, resources and links to services for young adults who are, or were, in government care in BC. The site aims to help these youth equip themselves with the skills and information they will need as they leave care.

AgedOut.com is an online engagement platform with information, resources and links to services for young adults who are, or were, in government care in BC. The site aims to help these youth equip themselves with the skills and information they will need as they leave care. With input from former youth in care, we built AgedOut.com as an interactive way to empower aged out youth to leave care and lead successful, independent lives.

Picnic™

platform, users aren’t just presented with interactive learning experiences, they’re rewarded for exploring them. As users complete quests and explore other aspects of the site, they can earn badges for their profile. For aged-out youth under 25, badges also have real-world value: collect enough, and you’re entitled to a gift card to one of a selection of popular stores, including Ikea and Best Buy. The result is an interactive site that looks and feels approachable, accessible and fun.
