This is the motto of the Community Youth Program.

The Community Youth Program, one of the best-kept secrets in the Roanoke Valley, has been changing lives since 1998. What began as a modest after-school site has blossomed into a thriving program designed to be flexible, interesting, relevant, and fun! 

We seek to foster leaders through the development of a positive self-image within every child, prevent risky behaviors and break down barriers to student success. 

We focus on holistic wellness, enrichment-style programming, and academics to achieve this mission. But most importantly, it is through the support of you, the community, that helps us thrive and change lives.
