The Simcoe Caribbean Associaton has created programs that educate, empower, and inspire every generation. Our programs are designed to support personal growth, cultural identity, life skills, and community connection across generations. Each initiative reflects our commitment to excellence, heritage, and meaningful impact.
Afrocentric Saturday School
Our Afrocentric Saturday School provides a culturally enriching learning environment where students can explore African and Caribbean history, heritage, literature, values, and traditions in a meaningful and affirming way. The program encourages pride in identity, deeper cultural understanding, academic enrichment, and leadership development while helping students build confidence and connection to community.
SCA Etiquette Academy
SCA Etiquette Academy is a signature program focused on confidence, character, presentation, and social development. Through practical instruction and guided experiences, participants develop essential life skills that support success in school, relationships, community settings, and future professional environments. The academy is designed to nurture poise, self-respect, communication skills, and personal excellence in a way that is both empowering and culturally grounded.
Senior Soul Care
Our seniors program provides engaging social, physical, and cognitive activities that help reduce isolation, promote well-being, and foster meaningful connection. We honour our seniors as an essential bridge to our heritage, carrying the wisdom, traditions, and experiences that enrich our community. Their contributions are deeply valued, and this program is designed to support, celebrate, and keep them actively connected.
Ladies Who Lunch
A quarterly sisterhood luncheon that brings women together for guided conversation, connection, and shared wisdom. Each gathering explores meaningful themes such as lessons we wish we knew earlier, navigating careers, cultural values that have shaped us, and the ways we feel most called to serve through volunteer engagement.
