Youth Programs
After School Tutoring
We provide a fun environment to complete homework under the guidance and support of our staff. Each child receives a snack to prepare for homework and reading. Our garden and nutrition specialist provides fun garden and exercise programs.
Southside 4-H Club
Our hoop house garden provides a great learning experience year round. We grow a wide variety of fruits and vegetables throughout the summer and winter, giving the kids opportunities to grow their own food and learn.
Michigan Fitness Foundation (SNAP-Ed)
Recent programming for our children has been offered through the Supplemental Nutrition Program to empower eligible individuals and families with education and skills to make healthier choices. Current programs include Healthy Schools, Healthy Communities where we present emerging best-practice intervention that can be used in classroom or community settings to help children and families eat better and move more.
We are excited to say that we've also begun the growing progress for our summer programs. We will have The Great Garden Detective available for our older kids and Michigan Harvest To Table and My Garden for our younger kids. This summer all of our children will be a part of Rec-Connect which encourages them to be active.
