Calumet City’s Youth Development Service program creates happy, engaged, future-ready learners. Through this program, we provide high-quality out-of-school time that engages students in exploration of academic content in interesting and innovative ways. Our development team has backgrounds in adult education, applied psychology, human resources development, instructional design, human factors, and knowledge management. This program is provided free of charge to participants (and their families) within qualifying neighborhoods. Attendance is a very important part! To get the most out of the program, your child should attend daily for the full program session. Transportation pick-up/drop-off is available.
