The Woodstock Youth Program offers a variety of recreational and educational opportunities to local youth ages 11-19. The Youth Center offers a safe, supervised facility for after school and weekends, when kids are most at risk. Our caring, trained staff and volunteers are available to help kids with whatever assistance they may need during operating hours. We also have the good fortune to have college interns assisting us in providing a well- monitored program.
