their disposal!
Our Race For Kids fundraiser had it’s most successful year, with the most teams to date, and the most funds
raised to date!
Other great fundraisers included: The Celebrity Dinner Gala & Golf Tournament, Chicks4Charity, Harley Elimi-
nation Draw and Pink Shirt Day.
2016 Also brought the official naming of the Youth Engagement Centre, with The Consolidated Credit
Union jumping on board with a $75,000 commitment!
Strengthening Families Program-
is a program for the families in the community that have youth ages 12-17 that may be struggling with substance abuse, parent/teen conflict, chronic truancy, delinquency, aggression towards other and/or self harm. The program consists of interactive skills build-ing in the areas of relationship building, parenting, communication, problem solving, anger management, and other areas of family functioning.
Girls Strong—This program
provides opportunities for girls
to gain the skills, knowledge
and attitudes they need to be
confident and self-respecting
individuals. We will help girls
discover their strengths and
abilities through curriculum
and activities. The program
will include guest speakers,
positive expression, discus-
sions, recreation activities
and outings.
