In preparation for returning to in-person learning, Youth Programs will be opening additional childcare sites.  Participants who are currently attending our programs will be enrolled at their assigned before/after school locations.   Beginning on January 4, 2020 we will register new participants at sites that still have availability. Due to CDC guidelines and restrictions many of our childcare sites will have limited availability.    If you have any questions or want to check on availability, please call (757) 926-1400.
