For TVCC Youth with disabilities who are 12 yrs + and who reside within Elgin/Middlesex, Huron/Perth, Grey/Bruce & Oxford County.
What to Expect
Horizons will match potential Pen Pals by interests, abilities, and type of mail (letters, art work, paper crafts, stickers).
The matches will be completed based on the answers listed in Eventbrite. This program is to assist Horizons participants with finding other youth who have similar likes, dislikes and hobbies. It could potentially create new friendships, reduce loneliness, add new recreational skills, and allow teens to meet new peers in a safe way.
All Pen Pals must be TVCC clients and will be screened before being matched between mid June and the end of June.
Participants from the Pen Pal club can be supported by the Happy Mail: Letters & Doodles group. Watch for it advertised this summer.
