Empowering Youth Through Experiential Education and Recreation
The Whitin Community Center works in partnership with our community to offer a free Youth Outreach Program to children ages 5–17. The program strives to inspire youth by establishing a true commitment to character, positive attitude, and a sense of purpose through 5 primary ideals: Education, Personal Well-being, Recreation, Creativity, and Meaningful Relationships.
The goals of the Youth Outreach Program are to encourage children to develop friendships, to build self–worth, and to develop a sense of fair play, team spirit, and cooperation in a safe, supervised environment.
The Youth Outreach program is comprised of 4 Free Programs:
To participate in any of these 4 free programs, please complete the Youth Registration Form.

"I come to the youth center everyday after school. This is our home away from home. This is where the kids too old for daycare, but not old enough to stay home alone, can come, have fun, get help with their homework, learn to do new things, and make new friends. We do this here without getting into trouble and we learn to respect each other and our community. Without the youth center, all of us would not have a place to go everyday, so we are grateful to have friends like the staff who work here, to help us all get along."
