Achievement Center
The Achievement Center Escondido is an after-school program designed to maintain community safety and promote long-term success for at risk youth. Our goal is to aid in the prevention and intervention of youth involvement with the justice system by providing a variety of services to support their success.
The program’s focus is to provide a structured, yet positive environment that allows youth to thrive through services such as tutoring/educational assistance, career exploration/work readiness training, group/individual counseling, and recreational activities (i.e. boxing, outdoor excursions, art, cooking). We also provide nutritious snacks, dinner, and transportation to and from the program.
The Center is open daily, Monday – Friday 3PM -7PM. Closed on holidays
