Catapult Alumni

The Catapult program results in life long connections between participants. Alumni of the program will not only stay connected with each other but they can participate in events and workshops focused on young leaders.

Any student who attends Catapult Camp automatically becomes a member of the Catapult Alumni community.

Each year, our alumni plan and organize a free, 1-day Alumni Conference focused on transitioning to the workforce and life skills they aren’t learning elsewhere. Past sessions have included networking, personal finance, healthy relationships, nutritious eating on a budget and more.

We commit to all our alumni that we will continue to support them in any way we are able. We offer:

  • Career Coaching - on request we match alumni to a mentor to help navigate choices, make connections within specific fields and offer a handbook to independently explore career choices.
  • Review resumes and provide references to help get jobs and scholarships
  • Assist with student loan applications
  • Share scholarship and other opportunities through our newsfeeds
  • Connect youth to youth services
  • Host sessions on topics our youth request such as resiliency and income tax clinics
  • Hold forum discussions on topics important to our youth such as Black Lives Matter and Path to Reconciliation
If it was not for Catapult, I believe my life would be completely different. I never would have had the confidence to move away from home and attend Acadia. I never would have set goals for myself or know how to achieve them.
