Organization Description

For over 48 years, DAYS Long Beach has served low-income, under-served youth and families in the Long Beach area. We provide youth with opportunities to grow academically and personally through educational, leadership and character development programs. Our services allow students to practice skills they have learned in the classroom, increase their desire to learn, and build positive relationships within the community. Through our extensive partnerships and collaborations, DAYS Long Beach is able to offer numerous services that effect the daily lives of the youth and their families. DAYS Long Beach provides programming in the following three areas: Youth Education and Development, Leadership and Academic Success and Parent and Family Support. All of our programs are made accessible through transportation assistance, language support and translation, and by remaining free of charge for all participants.
