The Youth and Family Center serves children and families mostly living in the challenged St. Louis Park Place, Old North, Carr and Columbus Squares neighborhoods in the City of St. Louis' 5th Ward. In recent years, the Youth and Family Center has served nearly 4,400 youth and adults.
The largest programs at the center of the Youth and Family Center’s mission are the Afterschool Program (Monday- Friday 2:30-6:30pm) and Teen Outreach Program (Tuesday-Thursday 4-5pm). These involve serving a snack and warm meal, tutoring/homework assistance, computer education, arts & crafts, sports teams, fitness and nutrition classes, and programs focusing on the development of self-esteem and life skills that prevent bullying, drug use, and teen pregnancy. The center offers both a Spring Break and Summer Day Camp experience that involve cultural outings and field trips. For the Afterschool Program contact Viola Oden at VOden@ For Teen Club information contact Kayla Bryant at Bryant@
The center’s Jazzy Senior Program (Mondays and Thursdays 10-1pm) is designed to combat hunger while providing social interaction, health and wellness activities, and address end of life concerns for adults 55 years and older. Contact Sam Carpenter for information at Sam@
The center supports a Sickle Cell Disease Awareness, Education, and Support Program as well. Contact Tanjila Bolden at TBolden@ for more details.
