The main purpose of this program is to help build strong, positive relationships among our youth. We want to create a safe space where everyone can be themselves, have fun, and build confidence. Our goal is to also support youth in achieving any personal goals they may have. We will provide the tools and resources needed for them to succeed in everyday life, whether it’s improving social skills, learning new things, or simply making friends. We hope you will join us on this exciting journey and be part of a supportive community!

Mentoring
We focus on important areas like social skills, leadership training, and professional development. Through fun activities and community outings, we encourage young individuals to connect with each other and learn about teamwork and responsibility

Field trips
Monthly field trips provide exciting opportunities for youth to grow, learn, and create lasting memories in a relaxed and enjoyable setting. These experiences can shape their interests and help them develop a better understanding of the world around them.

CPR Training
At Outsiders, our goal is to ensure that every young person in our program who wants to learn becomes certified in CPR. We believe that knowing CPR is an important skill that can help save lives. By getting certified, our youth will feel more confident and ready to help in emergencies.

Speakers
