Chillin' with Nature Peers - Peer Group
This group is designed for children who would benefit from a supportive space to establish and develop peer relationships.
This group will be held during the darker winter months where campfires and building resilience in the elements will be a part of the focus. We may even have fun with glow in the dark activities!

- Develop friendships
- Increase self esteem
- Overcome fears
