Spirit of Teens
2024-09-19 18:30 - 20:30
Our young people are capable of incredible things! (Age 12-16)

An empowered young person recognizes their capabilities, self-determination and worth. They feel comfortable trying new things and they have the confidence to take risks. They are aware that failure is a step toward progress, and not a sign to give up. They don’t use the opinions of others as their guideposts in life, and they stand up for their values. They know they have built a solid foundation to rely on in times of struggle or when they are feeling lost and need to re-centre.

Join us Wednesday evenings from 6:30-8:30 September 19- October 17 where we will be developing skills such as decision making, problem solving and communication.

Week 1- We focus on building confidence, relationships, and teamwork.
Week 2- We focus on communication, trust, and appropriate boundary setting.
Week 3- We focus on problem solving and negotiation
Week 4- We focus on decision making, mindfulness, and self-management
Week 5- We focus on leadership

At completion of week 5, we will celebrate the group with pizza and certificates of achievement.
