Youth Programs

“Safe, decent, and affordable housing helps children learn. Children stay in school and have higher math and reading scores. They are healthier with less asthma and other allergies. They have better nutrition and fewer chronic health problems.” – Kid’s Mobility Project, Family Housing Fund

Programs consist of after-school and free-time activities and include recreational, sports, arts and crafts, computer-based activities, camping and scouting, mentoring, leadership development, and tutoring. All programs are offered onsite at the family developments during the school year and summer months.
