Child & Youth Coordinator ProgramsThe Child & Youth Coordinator provides a variety of groups for our community. The program is to support youth by providing them with a “tool” box of life skills. They take this opportunity to support youth with many aspects in their life such as ; self-esteem, stress management, how to express feelings, health relationships, teamwork, mental health, communication, setting boundaries, safety planning, help with understanding all community supports they can use, etc. Some youth are unaware to what “typical” living styles are. They help by giving them a toolbox to guide them with life issues they might face. Some youth have a difficult time communicating with their parents/ guardian about varies topics. The Child & Youth Coordinator helps support the youth by being a person they can trust to ask difficult questions or concerns they are facing. This program allows youth to speak in confidence about things they need to just get out! Each youth is talked to about conditionality and how import it is to maintain with the group to help support one another. Other programs offered by the Child & Youth Coordinator are: Girls Circle, Boy Council, and Fourth R Programming in schools. |
