Mission

Impact lives of African-Americans through programs and activities that improve the quality of life for children, family and the community.

About

Family Strengthening & Empowerment Programs: Includes an After School Enrichment Program (ASEP) which serves children/youth, 5-15 years of age (kindergarten-ninth grade) and their parents, the majority of whom are single parent, extremely-low income families. The goal of the ASEP is to promote academic and life choice success through homework assistance and tutorial study, life skills, and cultural sharing experiences for students during the school year. Additionally, Parent Support Group meetings are held biweekly on Wednesdays, with 100% participation, to address parenting skills issues, challenges, strategies and family strengthening and empowerment in general. Also included is a Summer Enrichment Program which operates annually a full day program for children and youth with a weekly Parent Support Group meeting. ASEP programs operate on average 48 weeks of the year serving an average of 35 youth and 25 parents during the school year, and 40 youth and 30 parents during the summer sessions.
