Kenora Attendance Centre

The Academic Connections through Empowerment and the Kenora Attendance Centre (ACE/KAC) have the privilege of welcoming the Northern Youth Centre (NYC) staff to our programs. They have been providing additional support in the classroom as well our cooking and skills programming. There has also been the added bonus of having the NYC section 23 classroom teacher working in our programs, so we are able to offer even more one to one availability and support to our clients throughout the day.

Our clients have greatly benefitted from this, developing positive relationships with these staff members. It gives them more positive role models who can continue to provide support on their path to achieving their goals. This cross-pollination of NYC and ACE/KAC staff is in the beginning stages and offers exciting opportunities for not only our clients but staff as well. We look forward to continuing this development and discovering its advantages.
