PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Our trained supervisors are always present to provide guidance, mediate conflict, support youth during times of crisis or simply keep activities fun and interesting!
Trained On Site Staff
Youth in our programs are taught key life skills that are often left out of school. These include topics such as money management, leadership and cooking within budget.
Life Skills Workshops
We always provide our youth with free healthy snacks and meals. We believe that teaching youth about healthy, balanced eating in a supportive and accessible way sets the foundation for lifelong wellness.
Daily Healthy Food
Both our staff and peer mentors are ready and able to provide help with homework to ensure that our youth get the most out of their education!
Homework Help
Job Search Assistance
We help connect our youth with FORT-exclusive volunteer opportunities, build their resume and conduct mock-interviews they can put their best foot forward when entering the workforce!
Resume Help
We're always there to help our youth when building a resume. We walk them through the layout and wording to ensure they represent themselves professionally.
Volunteer Opportunities
We connect our youth with FORT-exclusive opportunities such as Special Olympics and cooking for the Salvation Army to gain experience and gain their volunteer hours for graduation!
Emergency Services
In times of crisis, the FORT is able to provide youth with fast and free access to a variety of resources, as well as trained, supportive staff and emergency kits.
Field Trips
The FORT takes youth on free and exciting field trips — giving them the chance to explore, bond, and experience new things.
One of our most anticipated outings is our annual summer trip to Canada’s Wonderland!
