Our Youth Outreach programs serve elementary, middle, and high school ages. Each program provides students with a structured after-school environment that promotes positive values and fosters a commitment to learning. Youth participate in various academic, creative, and recreational activities, receive tutoring, and learn how to form a strong, positive identity.
The BRING (Building Resilience In the Next Generation) Elementary School Program creates a nurturing space for 1st–5th graders to grow, learn, and thrive—both during the school year and in the summer. Through After School Gatherings and a vibrant 6-week Summer Day Camp, students receive academic support and engage in hands-on STEM and Visual Arts activities. Beyond academics, children build strong character, form meaningful friendships, and develop essential life skills in an environment rooted in spiritual and emotional care. It’s a place where kids feel safe, supported, and free to simply be kids—laughing, learning, and having fun
Our Made for More Middle School program serves youth from 6th to 8th grades with a weekday program during the school year and 6-week Summer Day Camp. Made for More students are encouraged in self-expression through various technical and performing arts opportunities, combined with a physical fitness and recreation track. Along with homework assistance and academic enrichment, students are offered a variety of cultural and career experiences to expand their horizons while receiving spiritual enrichment and forming a positive identity.
Our high school program serves youth from 9th to 12th grades including a weekly Club Session, a week-long stay at a Residential Summer Camp, College Tours, and a summer work program in partnership with the city of Chicago. Students also receive academic assistance as well as tutoring, along with exposure to the arts, sports, and life skills training. Youth also receive spiritual and cultural enrichment while building character and supportive and positive relationships with other youth.
