Get Stuff DoneWe know that as college students having an accountability buddy or designated time to focus is key to getting stuff done. This is an easygoing, soft and relaxed virtual environment that lasts for one hour and half to motivate each other in our studies and other types of work. Led by College Program staff, interns, and volunteers. |

Monthly Socials and GatheringsBeyond academia, Kid City recognizes the need for fun and play. Every month, the College team organizes an engaging activity or game, like Among Us, Story Time, or talking about anime to let loose, get creative juices flowing, and to build community with one another. |
|
Winter Leadership RetreatEvery winter, Kid City college students reconnect, learn more about how to support one another, and reflect on the past year. Each year, there is a new theme that is decided by a student planning committee. Using a breakout group model, the retreat features keynote speeches and hands-on workshops like cooking demonstrations and candle making. |
