​Kids Hangout Club is pioneered and run by two amazing student leaders, Rianne Supie Mohammed (Supie Mohammed) and Alexia Westwood, who want to create a safe space for kids to hang out, meet new friends and have fun together! Since the summer of 2020, this social group has received much wonderful feedback on helping kids engaging in learning and having fun with friends, from both the kids and their parents!

Kids Hangout Club creates an unique and effective peer-to-peer model that uses carefully pre-selected interesting and educational videos to spark conversations, inspire creativity, encourage questions, and motivate kids. This unique and effective model brings the kids together and improves the social conversation skills while exploring the world in a fun and exciting way with their peers!

We are very excited to announce that we will be further integrating the PEERS curriculum from the fall of 2024! In addition to sharing a wide range of interesting news and refreshing topics that are hand-picked for every single meetup, Supie Mohammed, the PEERS certified co-host will explore the secrets of friendship with the kids using the evidence-based social skills programs that will help in developing and maintaining close friendships!

More exciting news: from the fall of 2024, we will have a couple of in-person meetups where kids can interact with each other directly and further foster their friendships in person!

All of our meetups are supervised by Anita Yu, a PEERS certified volunteer, and lead by a PEERS certified co-host, Supie Mohammed. And they are completely free!

""The Kids Hangout Club is an excellent program. It is one of the most well run, well structured, and engaging tween programs that I have seen, heard, and experienced to date. My son loved and refused to miss his Friday Kids Hangout sessions. He made new friends and was able to learn and participate in the discussion with the group. The members and instructor were very respectful of each other. The weekly topics were always fresh and interesting, expanding each member's content knowledge of international pop culture to politics to robotics. The members were always engaged throughout the whole session. It was a really fun and educational program that even parents wanted to join in!

Given the technicality of real time online program, one really has to appreciate the amount of effort, preparation, and background work done behind the scene that had ensured how smoothly each session ran. Truly an excellent program!"

"For the past 4 years (including covid), our now 13 year old daughter has been attending and eagerly participating in the weekly activities with Khc.

She has high functioning autism and other mental health issues and khc has allowed her to fully engage in the group without fear of failure or anxiety around social situations. She has really grown in her ability to converse by sharing her opinions and allowing others to freely speak their mind. She has learned empathy and self-acceptance. She has developed a keen sense of humor because of the open and welcoming environment cultivated by Supie and her team at Khc.

Our daughter has found her tribe! She has been accepted into a kind, loving and neurodiverse family of like-minded friends with shared experiences and hopes and dreams! We highly recommend Khc to all future friends!" 🧡

“Our child has been participating in the Kids Hangout Cub since its inception. Comparing KHC to many teens programs that our child has participated, and there are many, we feel that the Kids Hangout Club is a very well run social program for teens. It is packed full of fun and appropriate educational content that the staffs carefully researched and prepared to present to the teens each week. The topics are often very interesting and dynamic, ranging from personal interests to life skills to pop-culture.

What also appeals to us is the small group size that the club offers. It is definitely more intimate and allows the teens to open up, get to know each other, and make new friends.

Addition to these, is the social emotional support that the KHC Club offers our teens. Teens respect and support each other. They take turns expressing themselves and their opinions during the discussion. They participate in show-and-tell. ...All of this while overcoming their individual challenges in a safe space.

Even to date, our child still looks forward to the weekly KHC club meeting, and would often rush us home to be on time for this online social club. The Kids Hangout Club is truly a special and a remarkable program.”
