Out-of-School Programs
Girls Group
Our Girls Group program aims to help prepare newcomer girls, aged 10–18 years old, to be active members of their communities by:
Connecting with their peers
Building communication skills
Expressing themselves through the arts and creativity
Engaging in a variety of fun and educational field trips
Receiving assistance with basic needs and supplies
In spaces where they feel safe, nurtured, and mentored, our free program for girls runs every Friday afternoon. This group is designed to meet the needs of girls new to Canada, but we welcome any girls seeking connection and friendship. We love cross-cultural connections!
Friendship Group
Social and emotional groups that support friendships between newcomer children and their peers.
Community Connection
Referrals to community partners and collaborating service providers.
Employment Referrals
We help youth gain Canadian work experience by connecting young job seekers with community organizations that specialize in employment support to youth.
