APA
KAMI BUAT.
Model REACH mengadaptasi pembelajaran berdasarkan pengalaman, pengembangan remaja yang positif, ekoterapi, dan prinsip pendidikan luar untuk menginspirasi kepemimpinan, kejayaan akademik, dan hubungan di antara para pemuda pelarian.
METODOLOGI .
Amalan kami memudahkan peralihan akulturasi pemuda pelarian dengan menyokong mereka untuk membina hubungan kuat dengan tanah air baru mereka, di samping memberi mereka peluang untuk memperkuat identiti budaya mereka dan berkongsi pengalaman mereka dengan orang lain. Dengan pelaksanaan program pembelajaran kontekstual yang mempromosikan daya tahan, REACH membantu mengintegrasikan pendatang baru ke dalam struktur komuniti baru mereka. Perubahan berulang dalam dasar dan sokongan pelarian dan pendatang menjadikan usaha kita untuk menangani keperluan integrasi pemuda pelarian dan keluarga mereka menjadi lebih penting. Kerja kami memberi tumpuan kepada pembangunan modal sosial, yang mendorong peralihan dari status marginal yang sering dipegang oleh pemuda pelarian dan keluarga mereka.

REACH, pada intinya, adalah untuk menghubungkan orang ke rangkaian sokongan yang lebih luas. Kami menyelaraskan perkongsian dengan profesional tempatan dalam bidang biologi, botani, ekologi, pemuliharaan alam sekitar, geologi, kejuruteraan, seni visual dan persembahan, media digital, teknologi, dan banyak lagi, yang berkongsi kepakaran mereka dan memudahkan hubungan yang lebih luas. Peserta REACH menerapkan kemahiran dan pengetahuan baru mereka melalui projek dan persembahan khidmat masyarakat yang dipimpin oleh belia kepada rakan sebaya dan masyarakat umum.
PROGRAM & PROJEK .
Adventure Camps
REACH offers youth between the age of 10 and 18 the opportunity to participate in fun and challenging outdoor adventures during out-of-school time throughout the year. Youth engage in weekly or monthly day-camps, overnight tent camping and extended sleep-away trips with adventure sports and place-based education activities such as: mountain biking, hiking, canoeing, kayaking, skiing, ice skating, snow tubing, climbing, archery, fishing, forest restora-tion, river clean-ups, and more. Youth participants develop technical skills as well as team building skills throughout the year and get to show off their new learning at our family picnics and award ceremonies.

Leadership, Service, & Stewardship
Our Service & Stewardship project is designed to encourage refugees to give back to their new communities while also developing leadership skills and understanding environmental stewardship.
Participants engage in service projects such as park cleanups, community gardens, political advocacy, speech-making, and other volunteer opportunities that benefit their new communities. Through this initiative, we aim to instill a sense of ownership and connection to their new homeland, and demonstrate how they can make a difference, both locally & globally.
Family-Focused
Eco-Experiences
REACH families, parents and siblings related to registered youth, engage in monthly ecotherapy and adventure sessions, including age-appropriate experiential learning activities focused on nature, the environment, and exploration. With this framework, REACH youth and their parents and siblings can discover the environment and explore their own play, with both nature and each other, and share information and connect with other parents of children in the refugee community. Parents are introduced to accessible locations where they can take their whole family, as particular emphasis is placed on the power of “exploring our own backyard” by visiting local parks and absorbing the different ecosystems that our local community offers.
Trek-2-Success
(college readiness)
Trek-2-Success is an empowering program designed for older refugee and asylum-seeking youth, providing them essential tools and resources to explore college and career opportunities. Through engaging tours of educational institutions and insightful interviews with REACH alumni and professionals, participants gain valuable insights into various pathways to success. This program not only focuses on academic and career exploration but fosters confidence and leadership skills, ensuring that youth feel supported as they navigate their futures.
Compass
