Wraparound Support for Brighter Futures
We offer a wide range of transformative afterschool and summer programs designed to meet the needs of South LA youth and their families.
Our holistic approach focuses on building social-emotional and economic success through academic support, arts education, mental and physical wellness, and career preparation. Together, we can help young people build successful, fulfilling lives.
“I realized that I would learn things at APCH that I wouldn’t be able to learn in high school. Not only did I learn music skills but also the professionalism and common practices you need to know to be successful.”
– Tony, APCH alumnus
“Strong values were highlighted, and the one that has stuck with me is accountability because that is something I struggled with and had to develop as my identity was being shaped. I had role models of strong women and learned I shouldn’t shy away from who I am.”
– Maricruz, APCH alumna
