TO DEVELOPMENT AND SUCCESS

volunteers in our organization
22
years we help children
Since 2001, Future Possibilities for Kids has delivered innovative and effective coaching-based programs to children from communities facing barriers in the GTA. In total, 7,000 children have become leaders through FPK programs, and 60,000+ community members have been positively impacted. Building Kids, youth and ultimately adults as Agents of Change has been at the core of FPK’s mandate.
Unfortunately, like many small organizations, the last few years were challenging for our organization. Regrettably, we are announcing the discontinuation of our exisiting program model at the end of May 2023.
We are currently working to reimagine how the community could continue to benefit from FPK’s programming and methodology. If you’re interested in exploring how you and your charitable organization could leverage our program and/or methodology, please reach out to info@fpcanada.org.

PROGRAM FEATURES

Impacts for Participants
Increased confidence and ability to impact their communities as well as improved skills to set and achieve goals – such as setting goals and taking steps to achieve them, problem solving skills, and feeling like they can achieve whatever they put their minds to.
Developmental Relationships
Described by The Search Institute, developmental relationships are “a close connection between a young person and an adult that powerfully and positively shapes the young person’s identity and helps develop a thriving mindset.” The programs and methodology of Future Possibilities for Kids are based in building developmental relationships.
Proven Program
Program participants are given the space to strengthen their problem-solving skills, practice creative thinking, engage in a team, build confidence, and develop community awareness leading to civic engagement. Kids are challenged to communicate powerfully, take on responsibility and most importantly, have fun!
Kid Coaching
Using FPK’s proven curriculum, KidCoaches inspire, empower and acknowledge the contributions of Kids. It is through this supportive dialogue that Kids are given a place to share their ideas, foster leadership skills and be courageous.
Possibility Thinking
Encouraging Kids to believe that anything is possible allows them to think in abstract ways and to overcome challenges. Believing in possibilities not only supports the journey Kids follow in accomplishing their goals, but it can also transform Kids’ faith in themselves.
