Helping the next generation grow, succeed, and thrive

Explore our youth programs

The Clarkston Community Center has always been dedicated to improving the live's of the youth living in the Clarkston area. In addition to our standard weekly classes, we also offer two expansive programs that help young people learn and better themselves.

CCC Quiet Zones 2.0 After School Program

Our after-school middle and high school program was the result of an ongoing need to address many problems faced by young adults in their homes, schools, and social communities. By joining the after-school program, these students become confident around the issues they face on a daily basis like youth violence, cultural diversity, health inequities, and obstacles to educational attainment.

This program is being sponsored by the DeKalb County Youth Services and the Clarkston Community Center and is open to middle and high school students. If you know someone who may benefit, please reach out to the contact information provided below.

CCC Quiet Zones is a free service open to residents of DeKalb County that is designed to provide quiet socially distanced space for students to participate in their virtual classes. Students will be encouraged to bring their district assigned technology (Chromebooks, hotspot devices, IPads, etc.,) or if the student does not have access to technology, we will provide the student with a loaner laptop during their time in CCC Quiet Zones.

CCC Quiet Zones were created to provide working parents, children that academic assistance, as well as families without access to adequate technology the opportunity to participate in their virtual classes in a supervised, safe, and quiet environment. Participants will receive free breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snacks. Students are welcome to bring their own breakfast, lunch and snacks.
