Manhattan Youth Recreation And Resources Inc

Programs: After school program - children aged five to twelve, especially those in elementary school, need qualified caregivers. While working parents can rely upon schools to provide childcare from the start of workday until mid afternoon, few quality or affordable childcare options are available from mid afternoon until the end of workday. After school is critical for working families. Absent childcare options, children must spend this time at home alone, or hanging out on the street without proper guidance or supervision. The program provides excellent care for children in elementary school and middle school. Our programs emphasize physical and educational activities and cultural enhancement. The program offers over $400,000 in sliding scale or free tuition.
