All children have access to a Gymnasium, Computers, Entertainment, Arts & Crafts, Performing Arts, STEM, High Yield Learning Activities. Our Club experience ensures that while we reach youth at an early age, our trained staff engage and provide a positive environment, compelling programming and community outreach events that support our mission.

In offering a positive Club experience and trained staff, our youth can achieve so much. They learn to contribute to society, develop lifelong friendships, build self-esteem, express their personality, dissolve their prejudices and nurture their talents.
