    CBA Mission Center Youth Enrichment Program now Enrolling for the 2017-2018 School Year

    Youth Enrichment Program of Greater Cleveland

    A CBA Mission Center Outreach Progra

     

     

    As an ongoing aspect of our mission program efforts, the Cleveland Baptist Association’s (CBA) executive minister, board and Justice for Children dream team had been praying about launching a long-term mission to address the needs of impoverished children in the Cleveland vicinity. Because CBA’s offices are located on the Fairhill Partners campus, it was natural to reach out to the leadership of Fairhill Partners. Fairhill Partners is a social purpose campus that connects people to opportunities for lifelong learning, intergenerational relationships, and successful aging.  At Fairhill, caregivers and families find support, educational programs, civic /social engagement, and help finding short-term emergency housing. 
    CBA began to wonder what it might look like if the two organizations partnered together to deliver an after school learning environment. Through those musings, the efforts of the board and members of CBA and the CBA commitment to Justice for Children, the vision for the Youth Enrichment Program of Greater Cleveland was birthed.
