Program Description:

Is your teen itching to spread their wings and hang out with other teens like themselves?

AdaptAbilities’ offers youth the chance to relax and meet new friends. Each week, teens plan a variety of recreational activities and our relief care specialists guide participants in making appropriate and fun choices. As a result, teens improve their decision making skills, become more independent and increase their participation in the community.

Prerequisites:
Participants must be able to function in a 1:5 staff to participant ratio

Potential activities include:
Swimming, bowling, playing pool, candle making, tie-dying, food preparation, self-presentation skills, self-defense, theater sports/drama, field games, sports, movie night, tobogganing, skating, yoga, weight training, girls night/guys night, bus coaching, laser tag, resume writing, interview skills and just about anything else our creative staff and kids can come up with.
