During the 2010-2011 school year, HYC was able to assist 350 students with school supplies, clothing, food vouchers and hygiene items. Of those students, 57 were placed in homes for the remainder of the school year.

HYC staff is currently working with some of those same students this school year and of course are adding some new ones. Several programs have been added this year that will give these same students a little extra boost beyond just meeting their basic needs.

The Workforce Program will assist HYC students in locating jobs, working on resumes and learning interviewing skills.

Medical care is now available thru the generosity of a local clinic.

Scholarship assistance will be available to locate and apply for over 80 different grants and scholarships. Opportunites exist for college degrees as well as vocational programs.

The United States Armed Forces provide plenty of opportunities for a successful future. Recruiters are available from each branch of our U.S. Armed Forces.
