Founded in 1984, when three Sarnia citizens, Barry Symington, Dee Cox and Terry Fitzgerald, came together to respond to needs identified by youth in our community, Sarnia-Lambton Rebound has grown immensely and is now a local and provincial leader in life skills facilitation, education, and cognitive skill development. Having successfully served over 40,000 young people from across Lambton County, each Rebound program strives to meet our Mission: to be a caring partner in the successful development of youth. Rebound currently delivers 12 programs and is the lead agency for The HUB, a wraparound support service for youth ages 12 to 24 supporting homeless and at-risk youth, where services (eg. housing, emergency food) come to the youth, not vice versa. Our programs offer education and support to youth ages 8 to 24, covering topics such as substance use prevention, developing resilience and coping skills, fostering social and cognitive skills (eg. goal setting, decision-making and teamwork). The Spectrum program offers a safe and supportive environment for LGBTQ2S+ youth in Sarnia-Lambton. Rebound Rocks is a music therapy program for youth, ages 12 to 18, where they’ll learn music, life skills, increase their self-confidence and respect while being engaged in their community. Rebound designed this program to foster resilience, encourage self-confidence and provide the creative outlet through which youth can experience the therapeutic benefit of music. Rebound has a history of coming together to meet the unique needs of our community and adapting its programming to meet the needs of the youth.
