What We Do

Every day at the Club, we provide highquality programs and support services that allow youth to leave us at age 18 “ready for life”. As soon as children and teens walk through our doors, they enter an environment of stability, consistency, and physical and emotional safety. Our programs are designed to be fun and engaging, while building skills and confidence for a successful future

What Our Club Does Best

We provide cooking classes for our middle school members that teach healthy cooking and reinforce good nutrition and healthy eating habits

We offer a high-quality volleyball program that exposes middle school youth to organized clinics and games

In partnering with Parque Niños Unidos playground, members grow, cultivate and nourish the community garden by planting fruits and veggies that are used in cooking classes at the Clubhouse.
