A.L.L. for Kids Program
Application for A.L.L. for Kids
The A.L.L. (Activities, Lessons, and Leisure) for Kids Program helps cover the cost of recreational activities for children whose parents could otherwise not afford it. These activities help prepare kids for future life experiences by developing them physically, socially, emotionally and cognitively.
Once approved, children are allowed two extra-curricular sessions of activities per year. The program is flexible in what the child can take and choices include, but are not limited to house-league sports (such as hockey, baseball, soccer, martial arts, archery and horseback riding), camps (such as summer day camps and overnight camps), art lessons, music lessons, Girl Guides, Scouts and more.
Funding is limited and is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Please complete the application form and submit to the All for Kids email to be reviewed by an Employment and Social Services Case Manager.
Important reminder regarding the A.L.L. for Kids program: If the chosen activity is a sport, A.L.L. for Kids covers house-league, recreational sports only. Travel or competitive sports are NOT covered by the A.L.L. for Kids program. FOR DANCE, gymnastics, skating, and other activities that offer multiple classes per week – ONE CLASS PER WEEK is the maximum that A.L.L. for Kids can cover. Reimbursement for registration fees and equipment to a client cannot be made.
Please email ckafk@chatham-kent.ca for questions or more information.
