Our New Reading Corner

We put together a cozy little reading corner today for our Peace Corner Book Club kids…feeling pretty good about it! It’s amazing how a little volunteer work can lift your spirits. Well done ladies!

Our Programs

Summer Youth Program

The Peace Corner Summer Program is open to neighborhood youth all day for six weeks during the summer. Children are provided with healthy snacks and lunch and enjoy athletics, academic enrichment, community service projects, field trips, guest speakers and more.

Youth Program

The Peace Corner is a safe haven and an alternative to gangs and drugs. The Peace Corner also provides tutoring, athletics, academic enrichment, and opportunities to connect with other youth in a positive way.

Career Development

Before the school children arrive, The Peace Corner is available to help develop the career skills of young adults. We offer assistance in computer literacy, job preparation seminars and referrals to educational resources.

Outreach

The Peace Corner offers services that help disadvantaged youth stay on a positive track. We offer legal services, mediation support, conflict resolution support, housing referrals and ex-juvenile detention services.
