At The Salvation Army, we are dedicated to supporting and guiding the next generation. Our youth programs provide a safe and welcoming environment where children and teens can learn, grow, and thrive.
We offer a variety of activities that encourage positive development, including after-school programs, tutoring, sports, music, character-building, and fellowship opportunities. These programs are designed to help young people build confidence, make friends, and discover their potential.
Our team works alongside families to ensure that children and teens have the tools and support they need for a bright future.
