  Counselor-in-Training

  The 'Counselor in Training' program introduces the counseling experience to our 14 & 15 year-olds with the hope that one day they can be recruited as members of our staff. The C.I.T.'s will assist the senior staff and counselors with their groups in their choice of activities. Here all the basics of counseling are taught from how to conduct activities to learning the basic leadership skills. In the afternoon the C.I.T.'s follow their own schedule continuing to use what they have learned.

  The C.I.T. program for 14-15 year olds provides your teen with an opportunity to learn and experience leadership and organizational skills. These will become an important part of your child's developmental skills that they will use throughout life. The 16 year olds, having completed the first two years of CIT, will have an opportunity to become a full time Intern. After being an Intern, they will then have an opportunity to become part of Kiwi's dynamic staff.
