Specialty Programs

CanAssist is delighted to develop and support specialty programs designed to directly address community needs. Currently we have two specialty programs:

 

Just for Kicks (JFK) is a soccer program designed to give children with special needs an opportunity to learn soccer skills, work in a team environment and - most importantly - have fun! Held at UVic, the program is open to all ages and provides volunteer opportunities for students to become "soccer buddies."  There are no registration fees.

 

Victoria Opportunities for Community Youth Leadership (VOCYL) allows young people from diverse backgrounds and different abilities to acquire and demonstrate leadership skills while promoting community inclusion. VOCYL is a partnership between CanAssist and Community Living Victoria. Opportunities in this program include participating in community initiatives, giving presentations to local schools and planning events.
