At Canopy NWA, we believe in the power of education and the importance of providing a supportive, nurturing environment. Our Youth Services are designed to help new arrivals adjust, thrive, and excel in their new community and school system.
School Interface
Our dedicated Youth Services Coordinator serves as a vital link between new arrivals and the local school system. We understand that navigating the norms and expectations of a new educational system can be challenging. Our role is to make this transition as smooth as possible, guiding households every step of the way.
After School and Summer Programs
Canopy’s After-School Program caters to children and teenagers from Canopy households. We aim to provide a safe, engaging, and educational environment where students can continue their learning beyond school hours. Our program includes:
- Academic Support
- Exploring Northwest Arkansas
- Art and Music Enrichment
- One on One and Small Group Mentorship
College and Career Readiness
We believe in preparing our youth for the future. Whether that means guiding them through the college application process or preparing them for the workplace, we’re here to help. Our guidance and support aim to equip Canopy youth with the skills and knowledge they need for post-graduation success.
Healthy kids are essential to a healthy household! That’s why Canopy places so much focus on youth services.
