.: Capilano: Youth worker Neil Huestis .thought his group would ’ have to do some more fund raising to pay.for the band’s loss, but two days later two teenagers shoved some money in his hand and “apologized... =~ .

“f£ told them they just earned ‘some respect,’’ said Huestis. ‘Incidents like this let you know * you have a winning program.””~ The teenagers are involved with the:Capilano Youth Project, orga- nized by the Capilano Community Services. Centre: The project cele- . brated its one year anniversary recently. 8 oo Huestis will be.talking about the program at the..service’s annual public general’ meeting ‘Tuesday, May 12 at 7:30 p.m..at 600 West - Queens Road. “The. majority of the kids. I

ose

work with are kids that would not otherwise be involved in communi- ty projects, They’re non-joiners,”’ he said.

Huestis said although the pro- gram has tried to focus on ‘“‘street kids’’, all jocal teenagers are en- couraged to take part.

“In the beginning | did a lot of outreach on the streets to contact the kids hanging around 7-Elevens and other youth hang-outs, to try to attract them to the drop-in cen- tre. The idea behind that is to give

- these kids a place to be — it's an

alternative activity for them to in- teract socially in a supervised facil- ity,”’ he said.

Huestis said the teen drop-in, located at William Griffin Com- munity Centre, now attracts as

. many as 100 teenagers.

“The kids were really very hap- py. to have a drop-in. You could call this a kind of clubhouse.”’

He said the drop-in is. run in- formally, and through it teenagers are introduced to various recre- ational programming offered in conjunction with the-North Van- couver Recreation Commission.

The Capilano Youth Program is funded through community and government donations.
