CirKISH is a program created to promote mental, physical, emotional, psychological, and social development with underserved youth through the exploration of circus exercises and acts.

Students are encouraged to express themselves; increasing their self-awareness and acceptance while interacting and participating with their peers in several activities that support and require teamwork and collaboration.

​

Building on this mission, Social CirKISH seeks to create lasting, positive change by equipping marginalized youth with the confidence, discipline, and transferable skills developed through the arts, empowering them to envision and pursue pathways beyond their current circumstances. Through sustained mentorship and experiential learning, we support students in accessing post-secondary education opportunities and developing the professional and life skills necessary to secure meaningful, gainful employment.
