OPtions Youth is a program dedicated to helping at-risk youth achieve their potential through social enterprise and skill-building workshops. It is composed of six weeks of skill-building workshops that help the youth understand and incorporate what they learn in the classroom into how they can build for a better future through the program. This is done in partnership with Enactus to help build relationships with the youth through a mentorship program as well. Then there are 14 weeks of work placement to get a better knowledge of the workforce and how each youth can make a difference.
