YOUTH
Program
The Congolese Integration Network Youth Program (CINYP) was developed in response to the need for a program which promotes healing, integrate, and empowers Congolese and sub-saharan refugee youth.
​
CINYP serves youth upon satisfaction of the following eligibility requirements: age, grade-point average, experiences of post-traumatic stress, family income, juvenile Justice System involvement (or potential risk thereof), and more.
​
We provide an integrated approach to youth support and development by addressing the many hurdles that can impact a child’s integration in society. CINYP streamlines its approach by addressing many universal hurdles to a youth effective integration. CINYP helps youth develop socio-emotional skills to adapt and thrive in an unfamiliar society, address, and heal past traumas, overcome language barriers, successfully navigate the school system and build self-confidence and strength.
