Feature Story: The Zone

Programming focuses on developing healthy relationships with peers and adults through recreation, physical activities, healthy nutrition, arts, and cultural activities. The program provides a fun, safe, and youth-relevant place for teens to hang out and be part of the community.

“Youth encounter many unhealthy options every day. Creating a safe place where they are welcome anytime and providing them with wholesome nutritious snacks and hot meals, supports their desire to choose a healthier lifestyle. Our leaders and mentors show them that they are not alone; they are given the opportunity to reach out, breaking the isolation of being alone or worse, abuse and addiction,” expressed Wiebe.
