Youth Program

La Casa's Community Center provides ongoing opportunities for youth (ages 13-17) to participate in many recreational and educational activities year around.

  • After school programs

  • (including: academic tutoring, pre-college workshops, recreational activities and more )

  • Full-day summer programs

  • (including college preparation and career exploration camps, field trips, community projects and more)

In addition, our youth lounges offer a safe environment for youth to just "chill." Whether you are on the computer for homework, checking your email, watching your favorite movies on the big screen, reading a book, or playing ping pong, air hockey, or foosball with friends, the youth lounge at the La Casa community center is an ideal spot to make friends, kick back and relax.
