The Community Outreach Program delivers activities and support services that supports students in the Adult Basic Education program with their transition to school and with developing strategies to overcome barriers that challenge engagement, retention and success. Outreach Workers are focused on developing relationships with students and their home communities to create bridges to school and to developing support networks that promote a positive learning experience.
Outreach Workers are available, in person or virtually, to support students on-campus as well as in their home communities. Their role is to assess students’ needs and help secure appropriate referrals within their home or school community in a timely manner.

Outreach workers are instrumental in supporting students with the development of academic and career plans that will act as a guide throughout the program year. They also faciliate information sessions and workshops that help applicants with the transition to school. To find out more about ABE application processes, how to apply for Provincial Training Allowance and what to expect if you are accepted into ABE, contact the Outreach Worker nearest you.
Outreach Workers will help students address a variety of barriers to school completion:
