In a typical non-pandemic year, 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.

You never know what’s gonna go on that day, or what kind of challenges face you, or what kind of celebrations are gonna happen when somebody achieves a goal they’ve been working on.
