Children
In the early 1990s, MBSCC began a considerable expansion when it was selected to participate in the Comprehensive Community Revitalization Program (CCRP), spearheaded by the Surdna Foundation and funded by a consortium of 21 foundations. MBSCC’s programs and diversified services grew significantly in response to the needs articulated by community residents and stakeholders, growing to include Early Childhood Education, daycare, summer camp, Head Start, youth development, ESL and pre-GED classes. MBSCC began to recognize that community revitalization begins with healthy and highly-achieving children and youth. As an organization that is deeply involved with its community, particularly with the parents of children in its programs, MBSCC understands the urgency of South Bronx residents to have quality-rich alternatives to overcrowded, unsafe, failing public schools. The following highlight our expanding educational and youth services: Head Start, Early Child Care/Pre-Kindergarten, Homework Help Program, Summer Camp and the Saturday Studio Arts Program.
