The Project YES/YMCA Youth Center provides free regularly scheduled after-school programs Monday through Friday from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm during the school year, and from 12:30 pm to 6:30 pm during the summer for local youth. The programs, which range from classes in mural painting and digital arts to projects in service learning and civic responsibility, aim to empower youth and assist in the development of leadership, critical-thinking, community-building, and problem-solving skills. In addition to gaining valuable skills, youth receive a free snack, assistance with homework, and access to an award-winning computer lab. |
