Youth Leadership Program

Dedicated to personal growth, we believe having self-esteem is the first step to becoming a leader. Our Youth Leadership Program combines leadership training, teamwork, self-government and volunteer placement to help build confidence – and connections. Volunteer placements include a variety of different places and tasks, such as assisting at our Camp Awesome Day Camps, assisting with Play Zone, working on youth led initiatives and volunteering at City of Selkirk special events (Canada Day, Waterfront Concerts, etc).  

During the Wednesday evening development sessions, participants will learn and work on their leadership skills and teamwork, through games, activities and lessons.  Throughout the summer, they can choose different initiatives they want to volunteer with. Youth may choose how frequently and how many hours they would like to volunteer. Commitment is flexible. Some youth may use their volunteer hours towards credit for school (Community Service SIP credit).
