Our Next Generation is successful because we:
Help children with the basics: reading, writing and math. A solid foundation helps open many doors
Make learning fun. Our center, our tutors and volunteers, and our programs make learning something to look forward to rather than avoid
Help our kids envision a positive future and develop a personal belief that they can achieve their dreams
Help our youth develop life skills to succeed in today's ever-changing world
Broaden the range of educational and cultural experiences beyond the neighborhood
Mentor youth to make good choices during adolescence: avoiding drugs, gangs, and anti-social behavior
Show them the value of community giving and service
Help youth who often times have little stability in their everyday lives find personal support from their peers and our staff, mentors and tutors
Create trust and respect among youth and with our volunteers and staff. Children develop the values they will need to be successful
