I AM YDC focuses on high school enrolled youth. We court our middle school students, inviting them to different events giving them sneak peaks to what’s ahead when they reach high school.
No! Parents are welcomed to use our facility at a discounted or complementary rate as long as their child has an active membership.
One of the negative effects of the global pandemic COVID-19 was the displaced children. Our founder Shun Henry saw that our youth missed the opportunity to gather with their friends and some did not have adequate resources for virtual learning. She witnessed children sitting outside of fast food restaurants just for the proximity of the wi-fi. Seeing this she knew that the basic need for youth to gather in a safe space with the basic tools for continued education was needed.
At I AM YDC we are always looking for Educators, who would VOLUNTEER their time to help tutor the students that need extra assistance in various subjects.
Business owners and entrepreneurs who would love to donate their time to share their stories with our youth.
We will have various administration, housekeeping and culinary positions available. If you have skills that will be beneficial to our youth, please send your resumé to contact@iamydc.org with “Resumé” in the subject line.

• Day Pass: $40/day+ $89 one-time administration fee. Administration fee renewed annually.
