Workshops for Youth and Families is a program of notMYkid, a nonprofit organization. The Workshops program offers preventive educational programs and camps that build social and emotional competencies to enhance personality, resiliency, confidence and character.
The workshops offered are geared towards pre-teens and teens and are NOT therapy. The goal of our workshops is to inspire and educate pre-teens and teens on dealing with the day to day issues that create stress in their personal lives. Workshops is not some mystery or weird experience. We build a cool community of people who can speak their mind and emotions with limits.
The Workshop Process
Workshop engages all participants in the peer mentoring experience and activities to identify and build your pre-teen/teen’s coping skills, relationships, and behaviors that enable our kids to become successful in life and thrive. We inspire everyday leaders.
Prepare. Prevent. Mentor.
Through our seasoned WYF facilitators, leadership team and peer leaders, Workshop attendees experience great peer conversations, intiriguing questions and interactive activities that activate and sustain young people’s innate stengths and skills.
A 40-year history
A rich tradition that helps youth become a positive force in their community and inspires participants to be their best self. Workshop brings a 40-year history of giving kids challenging activities to build stronger social skills, consciousness, and respect.
