The YMCA Community Action Network (YCAN) is an innovative national program that engages leaders across Canada to address community needs through service projects. The program, which is part of the Canada Service Corps initiative, supports youth with opportunities to identify and execute a local service project that is meaningful to them. Youth involved will work together to select, lead, deliver, and evaluate a service initiative in their own community.
Program Overview
Are you between the ages of 15-30 and want to make a difference in your community? Do you recognize the needs of your community and have ideas to make a difference? The YMCA Community Action Network (YCAN) is a national program that engages local youth towards addressing a community need through service projects. Youth will be trained and mentored to successfully evaluate, select, lead and deliver service projects by the YCAN Program Coordinator.
The YMCA School Reintegration Program (SRP) is a free three-week program which aims to help students that are facing difficulties in attending school. The aim of this program is to re-establish youth into the school environment and reduce risk of potential relapse through transformational positive experiences; which nurtures personal development, confidence, and independence. This program is targeted to youth aged 11-18 who are attending school at approximately 20% or less due to any barriers. The School Reintegration Program is offered at the Saskatoon YMCA Fairhaven location.
