The Center
Education Program

Our Educational Programs are designed to promote education and leadership, while providing individuals with various tools to succeed.  We are constantly looking at ways to help the community.  The goal of our Educational Program is to: 

1. Reduce Illiteracy
2. Instill service and leadership in our youth
3. Build adult and teen relationships
4. Teach drug and alcohol awareness
5. Promote family and community involvement
6. Provide information and referral services 

Over 82% of our participants live within walking distance of The Center; Over 88% are from low-moderate income family homes; 91% of the participants are minorities, and 36% of the young adults (ages 17-24) are unemployed.  The neighborhood in which The Center is located has the highest crime rate in the city.  Some individuals have no hope and are living one day at a time.  The Center’s mission is to empower these and other individuals through education, economics and understanding.  With partnerships and through collaborations with other organizations, i.e. Lycoming County United Way, Lycoming County Housing Authority, J.V. Brown Library, West Branch Drug & Alcohol Commission, PHFA and many others, The Center is determined to assist in making life better for people of our community.....because we care!
