The Fairfield County Community Foundation awards $25,000 to our Youth Development Program

This investment for the provision of a full-time manager will ensure that high school students receive a high quality after school experience. The Youth Development Program manager is responsible for implementation of program strategy, supervises program staff, and manages day to day operations for the high school programs. He is also responsible for being the liaison between the public schools, parents, Carver and the community.

For 70 years, the Carver Center has been a beacon of hope for Norwalk families. We have operated our Youth Development - Reach for College Program (Y.D.P) since 1970. The goal of the Youth Development Program is to help students gain admission to college or trade school and support them through graduation. We accomplish this goal by educating students about the college admission process and support them in earning grades that represent strong efforts. Students receive top-notch support to help earn solid scores on standardized tests and earn consistency with their high school performance. We follow our students through college and offer a small scholarship to qualifying students who remain active participants

The George Washington Carver Community Center of Norwalk is celebrating 70 years of service to Norwalk families.

Beginning in elementary school, our goal is to motivate students to reach for a post-secondary education and to provide the support they need to do so successfully.  We serve youth from Kindergarten through high school in our daily after school programs here at the Center and have recently expanded our middle school program to serve an additonal 100 students at West Rocks and Nathan Hale Middle Schools.  Our three core programs serve elementary, middle and high school students by providing educational, recreational and enrichment programming.
