Implanté en 2003 au Centre d’amitié autochtone de Val-d’Or, le Club des Petits Loups Mohiganech (en algonquin, qui signifie « petit loup ») vise les enfants âgés entre 6 et 12 ans, en leur apportant un soutien social et par le renforcement de leur capacité d’apprentissage. De par une approche holistique, ce service communautaire mise sur le développement personnel et des habiletés des enfants autochtones ainsi que de leurs familles. Pour ce faire, des activités culturelles, sociales et éducatives, dans un milieu de vie favorable au développement d’une fierté et d’une identité culturelle, leur sont proposées. Ce service, offert en langues française et anglaise, offre,non seulement de l’aide aux devoirs, mais aussi des activités d’éveil à la lecture et à l’écriture, des activités de littératie familiale, des activités de soutien aux parents dans le cheminement scolaire de leur(s) enfant(s) et de prévention du décrochage scolaire. Le Club des Petits Loups contribue au développement d’un sentiment d’appartenance des enfants à leur culture. Il contribue également chez les enfants au développement de leur estime de soi, d’attitudes positives face à l’école ainsi qu’au renforcement du lien entre l’école et la famille.
