Club offers robust academic support through programs like Power Hour (homework help, tutoring) and Project Learn, focusing on homework and making learning engaging, ensuring kids graduate on time with future plans through mentorship, resources, and a supportive environment.

Our STEAM’n initiative provides hands-on, project-based learning to foster creativity, critical thinking, and innovation, preparing youth for future careers by integrating Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics, and Nutrition into our programs.

From fitness to emotional wellness, our Healthy Lifestyles programs help youth make smart choices for life. Activities encourage teamwork, responsibility, and healthy habits — empowering youth to lead balanced, active, and confident lives.

From an early age through high school, supportive Club mentors provide opportunities to explore careers and post-secondary education to prepare youth with employability skills for future success. Clubs also connect teens to real-life work experiences such as internships and apprenticeships. Club also hosts career days, field trips including our annual spring break college tour, certification courses, and more.

Supporting our community is one of the most exciting programs for our youth! Different age groups choose how they would like to support the community. Youth have chosen projects supporting the environment, walking in the Juneteenth parade, hosting a car wash for a local non-profit, and more!
