Welcoming Our Community's Children
At Jubilee Youth Services, we offer a safe place of belonging, learning, and enrichment to the young people of Jubilee Housing through after-school and summer programming. Opened in 2007, we served 40 children and youth age 5-18 from the Jubilee Housing community in our first year, and continue to grow.
We aim to:
- Build intentional, trusting relationships with children and their families

- Provide a foundation where children feel loved, encouraged, and supported
- Balance love and forgiveness with accountability and consequences
- Challenge children to move beyond their current level of comfort and competency through constructive feedback
- Encourage academic excellence and a desire for learning
Our Programs Deliver:
- Academic support
- Enrichment activities
- A safe and supportive environment
- Meaningful relationships with staff, tutors and mentors
- Healthy life skills lessons
- Teen leadership development
- Community service opportunities
