Afterschool Program Volunteer Positions
The Afterschool Program aims to keep immigrant and refugee youth (Grades 1 – 12) positively engaged during critical after school hours (2:00 pm – 6:00 pm) by providing academic support, English language development, recreational activities and healthy life skills. Programs are delivered once a week for two hours after school within selected schools, housing complexes, and public libraries located in neighborhoods with the greatest need. Detailed Afterschool Program schedule is available at http://www.cbfy.ca/programs/afterschool-progam/.
