New Community for Children

New Community for Children (NCFC) provides children and youth with learning experiences that build up their academic, social, and creative skills. We believe that excellent educational opportunities are the key to helping families break out of the poverty cycle. We offer creative hands-on learning in our after school program, and advocate for healthy families and challenging schools to support that goal.

Mission

New Community for Children (NCFC) provides children and youth with learning experiences that build up their academic, social, and creative skills. We believe that excellent educational opportunities are the key to helping families break out of the poverty cycle. We offer creative hands-on learning in our after school program, and advocate for healthy families and challenging schools to support that goal.

Programs

Children enrolled in NCFC after school programs are given the opportunity to bolster their academic skills, find expression through arts and recreational activities, and build a positive self-esteem during out of school hours. Our staff cultivate a safe and positive environment in which children are constantly engaged, challenged, and growing as positive and well-informed decision makers. Children participate in programming Monday through Friday during the academic year.
