School Programs
In these these one-of-a-kind programs, comedian coaches work as visiting artist instructors to give youth from 9-17 years of age the tools and perspectives to better face the challenges life throws at them. Stand Up For Student Well-Being works in schools to support youth by sharing resiliency strategies for stress and anxiety.
We are proud partners with TDSB and we welcome building relationships with school boards!
