Youth Enrichment Program (YEP)
Macedonia provides the first things low-income adults and children need in
their lives. For adults, that’s jobs. For kids, it’s homework help.
In 2003 Macedonia began YEP for at-risk kids, ages 6-17, who were failing
school or were latch-key kids with no supervision. “Some kids were not
turning in their homework at all. Now they do it faithfully,” said Program
Director Dee House, who obtains progress reports weekly from 15
teachers to track with students.
“We’re here to love the kids, teach them manners, be a place that cares,
and give fundamentals for life,” said Paville Dawson, who envisions the
current class of 12 children growing to over 100.
“These kids are the future of America, and what we do with them today will
determine whether they end up taking from society or making positive
contributions because we taught them to care, share and love one
another.”
YEP’s three committed staff members serve as “community parents.
Providing after school snacks, homework help, use of computers systems
to complete assignments.
Training Hours Tuesday and Thursday 4:30 PM until 6 PM
Everything is free!
Call 253-537-5449 or stop in.
