testimonials

"We've had Jeff Willis and Creative Toolbox facilitate some powerful team building sessions for us to continue our work in engaging youth through recreation. Creative Toolbox gives people, teams, and organizations the TOOLS to work and play outside of the box, so that we can effectively connect with youth in the community.  We've learned games and activities that we apply to our recreational programs every day, and learned more about the power within ourselves to play a little more freely, laugh a little more loudly, and work with passion and creativity." - Ivy Vuu, Community Youth Worker, West End Community Centre

"Jeff and his Creative Toolbox team are understanding professionals who havepresented quality innovative workshops to the children and staff at Spare Time Clubhouse.  Creative Toolbox have been invited back on numerous occasions to our Organization and it has always been a unique experience. The participants are left with a satisfied feeling that they understood the content and can’t wait to utilize the tools. I highly recommend Jeff Willis to come and motivate your team!" - Alona Ben Yacov, Supervisor of Spare Time Clubhouse

"Love Creative Toolbox; excellent choice to always have them yearly!" - BCRPA 5th Annual In Your Face Youth Workers' Conference Participant

"Working with Challenging Youth with Jeff Willis was great! I've heard lots about him so it was exciting to get to take his session!" - BCRPA 5th Annual In Your Face Youth Workers' Conference Participant

"I've been a big supporter of Creative Toolbox ever since speaking to Jeff about it. It has enriched my life enormously. Being a part of the creative retreats as a participant and workshop leader has given me a chance to network with other creative and community minded individuals in a positive inspirational environment. Creative Toolbox programs exposed me to the brilliance of experience based learning.  As a student, writer, musician and child care provider I recommend any Creative Toolbox program as a chance for individuals to enhance their self awareness, and gain unique team building, communication and leadership skills. I can honestly say Creative Toolbox has given me some of the most positive and important experiences of my life." - Workshop Participant
