At our Haverhill site, there are two main programs for children:

After School Programs
All of our youth-oriented programs grew out of women’s economic needs for safe, world-class programs to serve their children while they work. We responded.

Our After and Out-of-School programs operate year-round, and serve children in kindergarten through eighth grade.

After School programs run September through the end of the academic year, and are available at the YWCA in  Haverhill, Lawrence and at our new location on Broadway in Lawrence.  Focus is given to academic success and training children to be eager and affective learners, with afternoon tutoring available.  Once homework is completed, children are encouraged to participate in games, field trips, and our computer center.

Out-of-School Programs
Out-of-School programs run during school vacations, including the summertime.  Inventive activities include trips to the Farmer’s Market, field trips to such places as Spectacle Island in Boston, Disney on Ice or other holiday events, or a local museum.
