How it works:
The key component to all of our programs is our ability to have the youth ENGAGE with us.
Once we establish a positive rapport, we link the participant with their COMMUNITY.
When the youth are connected to their community, they are more likely to make positive decisions and increase their RESILIENCE.
Every Program works on this simple premise whilst working towards targeted goals and/or themes.
Programs typically run over an 9-week timeframe during School Terms.
