Empowering youth in disadvantaged and marginalized communities is why our Youth Navigation Program exists. We believe that education is the key to breaking cycles of disadvantage, and that through an after school program we can help contribute to this goal.

We promote academics and life skill management to break the cycle of poverty, equalize educational opportunities, and build self-confidence.

By nurturing future leaders and reducing dropout rates, we foster a sense of belonging and promote holistic development.

after school program

Our after school program runs Monday to Friday, from 3-6 PM, during the academic year, and we typically follow along with the Montgomery Public School calendar.

We have leased space from Common Ground Montgomery at 1516 Mobile Road (and absorbed their after school program).

We serve approximately 100 students from the Washington Park and Gibbs Village community. We provide pick-up from schools, as well as drop-offs, and we provide snacks to the children as well, as no child should be hungry while they are trying to learn!

We have certified teachers and specialists to help with academics, as well as various play activities.

Summer enrichment program

Our Summer Enrichment Program runs from 9 AM to 3 PM, Monday through Friday, for eight weeks during the summer, ensuring that children have a safe and nurturing environment during their break. The program offers a range of activities that combine fun and education, creating a holistic experience for these young minds.

The daily schedule includes nutritious breakfast and lunch, ensuring that no child goes hungry and they receive the essential nutrition they need to thrive. Moreover, academic assistance will be provided to bridge the learning gap that often widens during the summer months.

But it's not all about books and classrooms! Our Summer Enrichment Program also offers an array of recreational activities that promote physical fitness and foster personal growth.

From swimming to outdoor play, basketball to arts and crafts, we will create an environment where these children can explore their talents, build friendships, and create lasting memories.
