To expand our hours and reach to more youth and families through day studies and after-school programming. Through community support and fundraising efforts, we have been able to provide a safe place for youth and families to enjoy life, providing meals and educational workshops surrounding suicide prevention, mental health, and substance prevention for FREE! Our goal is to continue providing these opportunities while raising additional money to open up extended hours during the week.
We’re an afterschool program with a purpose. Currently, there are no after-school programs similar to what A17H offers in our surrounding communities.
