Special projects is BGC Yukon's way of addressing Gaps in the system and providing support based on community needs. This varies from week-long camps in remote communities to one off camps to support PD days. We vary based on what is asked of us and committed to support any request brought our way. If you need something for youth and families, just ask. If we can't support you, we will connect you with someone who can. Special Projects is committed to meeting the community where they are at based on communication.
BGCY recognizes the need for summer time child care and is working to improve available programs within the Yukon. Currently we are offering a summer camp in Haines Junction. The camp is geared towards technology, food and food knowledge, and land based programming. If you are interested and would like more info please connect with our Haines Junction Manager. The camp runs for the duration of the summer and works to fill up the days with adventures, hikes, education and other engaging ways of staying active and learning on a daily basis.
Age out runs Monday night and is to provide services to Youth who are aged out of programming. We aim to serve ages 18-29 with vocational supports, academic endeavors, harm reduction knowledge, support and access to safe space, and food as needed. This runs weekly on Monday nights from 3-9 and supports are based on need.
