Learning, Emotional & Social development

At TNC we are creating "students of life" in our Learning, Emotional & Social Development programs. Our participants gain a critical continuation of education and instruction through programs such as Creative Arts, Media, Music and Movement. The combination of these opportunities in a real-world setting help to develop a strong sense of community and belonging. And, provides a rock-solid foundation for progression into our other programs. 

Our Creative Arts Program creates a space for exploration...allowing participants to learn, grow and inspire one another and serve as an outlet for their emotions. An atmosphere is created, where individuals are free to express themselves through a variety of artistic mediums and dynamic projects to engage individuals across various interests, skills, and abilities.

The Media Arts program offers participants an opportunity to learn and further develop their writing skills in journalism, poetry, and personal expression. Our sound-proofed Media Lab is fully equipped with the technology required for participants to fully explore photography, podcasting and video/audio recording sessions. From these sessions comes our podcast "Agents of Humanity" as well as our monthly print, "Navigator Newsletter" and news updates from "Nicholas Center News."
