Encourage our kids to higher learning!
Here at Hospitality House Youth Directions (HHYD) in North Minneapolis, we love partnering with volunteers to give our kids the small group and one-on-one attention they need to academically succeed.
The kids are the reason our volunteers keep coming back
HHYD is a designated Area Learning Center for the Mpls Public School District. Through our Urban Learning Center, we provide supplemental educational services: after-school and summer school tutoring programs which are open to all youth, grades K-12, but targeted for students from low-income families who have scored 40 percent or lower on standardized tests. The ULC program works closely with parents and the Mpls school system using fast-paced, structured learning strategies to improve students reading, writing and math skills, their social development and their ability to utilize technology.
Responsibilities focus on Student Assistance
- Give direct academic instruction to individuals and small groups (less than 6 students) to build and strengthen learning skills to meet educational goals.
- Assist students in completing homework.
- Serve as a positive role model

Mission Statement
Hospitality House Youth Development provides a Christian outreach focused on the spiritual, intellectual and physical development of inner city youth and their families.
Description
Hospitality House Youth Development, founded in 1960 and incorporated in 1963, is committed to developing responsible career staff persons to reach out to urban youth, ages 5-18, in their physical and intellectual development, their social integration and their spiritual birth and growth in Jesus Christ. Program leadership is responsive to parents, school authorities, youth, churches, and community organizations. Staff members are maturing, compassionate adults with a consistent personal commitment to Jesus Christ as evidenced by their life style that conforms to Biblical disciplines. They serve as vital role models in a world that so desperately needs such living examples. We believe that any project or program is only as good as the staff person directing it and the volunteers who support them. Quality staff and volunteers will develop quality programs and lasting relationships with young people. There is a real concern for "walking through life with youth." Programs generally fall into the following areas: 1. Education 2. Athletics 3. Performing Arts 4. Small Group Active Learning Environments. These programs provide a framework to address our long range objectives of training youth in the Christian faith and encouraging their development as responsible, contributing members of their families, schools, churches and communities. Hospitality House operates on a holistic model, meeting the emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual needs of all youth.
