Youth groups
We will have a number of activities for youth including:
- OWL Program – Grade 7 – 9
Some Sundays & two overnight retreats (Starts Jan 20), 10.30 am – Emerald Room *** Pre-registration required ***- Unlike many other sexuality curricula currently available, this program is comprehensive and progressive. In an inclusive and developmentally appropriate manner, it addresses sensitive topics that are typically excluded. Our experienced OWL leaders look forward to helping your children and youth explore questions about sexuality, relationships and boundaries in this interactive program. It is built on four core values: Self-worth, sexual health, responsibility, and justice & inclusivity.
