Classroom Programs
Each year, we offer a variety of workshops and learning series in elementary schools for primary grades across Huron and Perth Counties. Themes relate to disability awareness, self-regulation, personal safety and social skills.
The School Program Guide is shared with AMDSB and HPCDSB teachers in September, who make arrangements with our team for classroom delivery. Grab a copy of the 2024-2025 school year's guide here.

If you are interested in having a program in your classroom, learn more here.
​
Additional resources for parents/caregivers on these topics are also available if you would like to complement the classroom workshops at home.
Family System Navigation
Our team also supports families who are seeking additional help from other community organizations. If you are a parent/caregiver, with children living at home, we can help you navigate the systems to find the supports you need in Huron and Perth County. Call 1 (226) 699-0707 or email our Parent Support Workers, Susan or Jill, for help.​​
Safe Places Huron
​Acquiring a Safe Places Youth Certification as a worker or volunteer who interacts with children supports quality activities while reducing potential risks to children and youth.
Safe Places Youth Certification demonstrates to your community that you highly value your responsibility as a person in a position of trust with children and youth. It also demonstrates to children and youth that activity leaders have training and knowledge that contributes to building trust.
​
If you are an activity leader or volunteer, find out more about how you can start the certification process. Email our Administration Coordinator, Nicole, here or call 1 (226) 699-0707 ext. 101.
Huron County Christmas Bureau
The Huron County Christmas Bureau provides gift cards for the provision of groceries and gifts for children, ensuring every family in Huron County has access to food on the table and presents on the holidays.
The Huron County Christmas Bureau is funded by donations and fundraising efforts from the community. For over 50 years, churches, schools, community organizations, businesses, and caring individuals have rallied together to ensure every child in our community experiences the wonder of Christmas.
Please join us in continuing this very special Huron County tradition!
Jumpstart Program
The Canadian Tire Jumpstart program is for parents/caregivers who are in need of financial support to help pay for their children’s sports registration fees and/or equipment relating to a registered program.
​
We are the local Canadian Tire Jumpstart Ambassador, meaning we are available to help families complete their online Jumpstart applications. Email our Administration Coordinator Nicole here or call 1 (226) 699-0707 ext. 101 for help with the application for funding your children’s sports activities.
