Curtis Woods

Therapeutic Services Coordinator

After 25 years of social service work with youth throughout Durham Region, Curtis joined our team in February of 2026.

Curtis has a variety of experiences supporting youth through organizations, including Kids Help Phone, Northumberland County, Frontenac Youth Services and The Durham District School Board. With a Bachelor’s of Social Work from Toronto Metropolitan University and a diploma in Human Services Counselling from Durham College, Curtis brings a wealth of knowledge to our team.

As our Therapeutic Program Coordinator, Curtis supports our participants in facilitating meaningful connections, building skills and achieving their goals in a land-based, natural setting.

“Unlike everywhere else I’ve been, at Nova’s Ark, I do not feel out of place. It gives me something that I feel like I can’t find anywhere else. I meet people that I otherwise wouldn’t meet and I feel like a lot of those who have helped me through my struggles I’ve met here.”
Bridget, Participant since 2010

From the moment our son started attending Novas Ark, we felt such positivity, hope and inspiration. Everyone in the Nova’s Ark family has been so caring and accepting of our whole family. Nova’s Ark has gone above and beyond to help us on our family’s journey and we are beyond thankful. We are so lucky to have found such a supportive environment for our children and our family.
Parent, Shannon K.
