Our SĆIȺNEW̱ SṮEȽIṮḰEL Club enjoyed some fresh air and outdoor fun on these warmer days we are having this fall! 🌿💛

Time outside gives children the chance to explore, play, connect with friends and enjoy the simple moments that make after-school care special.

At BGC South Vancouver Island, we believe every child deserves opportunities to learn, grow and thrive — one experience, one friendship and one day at a time.

This week at RISE Sooke Drop in (6544 Throup Road), we tackled the challenge of encouraging acrostic poems! This activity is a great way for the youth to help share encouragement with their peers and to help them remember that they are seen, known, and appreciated at RISE! We also made red velvet cupcakes following the skills outlined in our ChefNation programming, we played Lost At Sea (a teambuilding game based entirely on listening skills) and we ended the week playing a Canadian Geography Kahoot.

💙 Every young person deserves a safe place to land.

BGC South Vancouver Island’s Turning Point program is a voluntary short-term residential program supporting youth ages 13–19 who are facing social, familial, or personal safety challenges.

Through a caring, community-based approach, youth are matched with one of our vetted Care Families, where they receive:
🏡 Safe, secure housing
🤝 Socio-emotional support
🌱 Life-skills development
🎓 Support to stay engaged in school or employment
👥 Guidance from a dedicated Youth Outreach worker

Turning Point helps youth build confidence, independence, and a stronger path forward—whether they are experiencing parent-teen conflict, discrimination related to self-identity, risk of exploitation, or a lack of stable and supportive housing.

📅 Program length: 3–6 months
📍 Self-referrals and community referrals are welcome.

📞 250-686-9109
🌐 www.bgcsvi.org

Because with the right support, young people can move from crisis to possibility. 💙
