Our Programs

Creativity Based Programs

EYS offers creativity based programs for all ages to promote healthy self-expression. Acts of creativity benefit children’s concentration and confidence by stimulating thought organization.

Leadership Based Programs

We offer leadership based programs for all ages to establish peer acceptance and goal setting while focusing on the foundations of leadership. These foundations include respect, teamwork, knowing your limits, self expression, and compassion. 

 

Social Emotional Learning Programs

Through social emotional learning programs, EYS combines movement, crafts, and games to allow our children to feel uncomfortable emotions in a controlled way. Children leave these programs with awareness of their potential and compassion for others. 

Skill Building / Educational Programs

Skill building and educational based programs are designed to further the positive youth development by integrating safety and inviting community members to join activities that are popular for children. Children learn best in a dynamic, supportive, and encouraging environment. 

School Readiness Programs

The school readiness programs created by EYS are meant to ease transitions and give confidence to our children during what can be challenging times in new environments. 

Workshops & Support Groups

Our workshops provide all our community members with an opportunity to learn. Sharing useful information on vulnerable topics (like substance abuse, mental health, and parenting) initiates conversation. Conversations make a difference. 

EYS hopes that adults maintain the same amount of peer support that we know to be essential for our children. This is why we have created parent support groups that encourage open communication among caregivers.
