Stand-Up & SHINE Six-Week Program

Our six-week Stand-Up & SHINE program takes the beloved afternoon portion of our week-long Stand-Up & SHINE Camps—the part focused on stand-up comedy and storytelling—and turns it into a deeper, after-school style experience.

From Friday, January 16 to Friday, February 20, 2026, students will meet weekly to:

• Develop confidence and public speaking skills in a supportive, fun environment
• Explore their strengths, hobbies, and interests through the SHINE framework
• Practice processing and communicating real-life experiences through stand-up comedy and storytelling

Grounded in the SHINE framework, this series places a special emphasis on the E in SHINE (Experiences), helping students turn what they’ve lived through into meaningful, laughter-filled stories they feel proud to share.
