We are conducting a study to help improve and evaluate the Stepping Out on Saturdays (SOS) program at the Specialized Services for Children and Youth (SSCY) Centre. We want to hear from the children participating in the program and understand their perspectives and ideas. We will trial methods of capturing the perspectives of the children, in ways that suit their strengths. All of the children enrolled in the camps are eligible to participate in the study. Three student researchers will attend the SOS camp. Throughout the day, the children who consent to participate in the study will be asked to share their ideas and perspectives on the camp using words and/or a selection of arts and craft materials such as clay, markers and paint. No child will be recorded or photographed.
