Youth Programs | Compassion First

Our Programs are designed to help youth who need us most.

Our youth programs are designed for children who need to learn life skills, socialize, and make friends. We help all children with neurodivergences, from autism, to learning disabilities, and anything in between. Our programs offer a way to learn essential skills, like cooking, time management, budgeting, and more. On weekdays we offer our structured program, and Saturday offers a more relaxed environment for socializing and recreation.

Saturdays 9:00am to 1:00pm

Our youth socialization group meets on Saturdays at our Summerside location. We provide a fun and engaging setting for children to socialize and partake in various activities. Recent adventures have included skating and Mario themed activities! We love Saturdays as a time to make new friends and experience new things.

Mondays have become a time to learn to focus our stress and anxiety by learning new crafting skills! Crafts can be a valuable way to manage anxiety day-to-day.

Tuesdays mean cooking! We learn age appropriate recipes and kitchen skills, and once a month we bake a little treat.

Wednesday is our outing! We usually go bowling and get to have some fun and a little exercise at the same time, but do occasionally switch!

Thursday's are for time management! We learn with timed challenges, and activities designed to help manage time more effectively.

Fridays we learn about finances! Our members learn through games and activities, as well as a monthly trip to stores in our community.
