Students are referred to our program from over 35 schools in Surrey, New Westminster, and Delta. Referrals are made by school counselors, teachers, administrators, youth workers, or other social service agencies. Students come from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds and often face multiple barriers to success: poverty, mood disorders or mental illness, addiction, low self esteem, family conflict, medical issues, learning problems, and trauma. We assist approximately 200 – 250 students per year, and provide so much more than ‘just a grad outfit’ – most students who attend our program are more motivated to stay in school and complete their high school education.
