About This Opportunity
GO KIDS!
This small-group mentorship program focuses on achieving healthy bodies and healthy minds. ‘Go Kids’ teaches youth in grade six (6) through grade eight (8) about positive lifestyle habits, positive self-esteem, and emotional wellness. Every session runs one to one–and–a–half (1-1.5) hours in length and allows participants to take part in fun, educational activities while supporting mental health and building resilience. The single, most important goal of the program is to positively shape the lives of young people by helping them build a positive self-concept – setting them on a path to reach their full potential.
GAME ON!
Developed for adolescents’ grades six (6) to eight (8), ‘Game On!’ applies a mentorship approach to provide young boys with information and support to make informed choices about a range of healthy lifestyle practices. Through non-traditional physical activities, participants are engaged in life skills, communication and emotional health discussions designed to support participants in the pursuit of life-long healthy lifestyles. Every program session runs one to one–and–a–half (1-1.5) hours in length. All are welcome to take part in this fun, active, educational program.
