New Heights Transition to Adulthood (T2A) program is hosting our first workshop of the year on Tuesday, November 22 from 7-8:30pm on Post-Secondary Programs. We will be offering a student workshop (for high school students) and a Parent/Guardian Workshop (for Parents/Guardians of Jr High, High School, and T2A).
The student workshop will be presented by Amberly and Mel (our Community Coaches) and will feature former New Heights students who have attended a variety of post-secondary programs in the city. We will be discussing what to expect at different institutions including class sizes, interactions with professors, social opportunities, supports available to students, upgrading options, and more.
The parent workshop will be presented by Jen Bodiguel (T2A Coordinator) and Tracy Tomiak (Family Counsellor). We will be looking at a variety of routes available to our students after graduation and exploring how students can reach their goals through more than one route. We will also be discussing some of the skills that lead to the best quality of life and success for our students in adulthood. This workshop will not be answering specific questions about your child’s post-secondary route, but rather looking at the bigger picture and how we can set our students up for success in whatever post-secondary programs they choose to pursue after New Heights.
