The Center
Recreation Program

Our Recreational programs are designed to provide fun and entertainment, as well as offering people an opportunity to exercise, learn teamwork and make new friends.  The goal of our Recreational Programs is to offer youth and adults:

1. A safe after school environment
2. Promote social and positive self images
3. Provide alternatives to high risk behaviors
4. Allow for mentoring opportunities
5. Promote healthy life styles

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!
