Michiana Family YMCA

Learning Experience
Counselor-In-Training

In Counelor-In-Training (or CIT) programs at the Y, teens have the opportunity to shadow our professional role models (camp counselors), building practical leadership skills while mentoring younger kids.

With an emphasis on building self-esteem, setting goals, and developing their potential, this is the perfect job skills training program for teens not yet in the workforce.

We offer CIT programs during Summer Adventure Day Camp Monday-Friday.

CIT program is also available at YMCA CAMP EBERHART.


YMCA URBAN YOUTH SERVICES

Our trained and passionate staff of Life Skills Coaches provide specialized experiences for students 11 to 18, focusing on goal-setting, college planning, youth leadership, volunteerism and social development. We engage teens one-on-one and in small groups to improve your child's ability to resolve conflicts, become critical thinkers and open to life-long learning opportunities.

Want to become involved? Students are referred to us by peers and school administrators, or identified by our coaches, who seek out traditionally under served youths. Programs are designed to help all kids realize their potential and provide our community with future leadership.

Registration forms, which must be signed by an adult guardian, are available from the school offices or our coaches.
