Description
Youthlinks is a program of Broadreach Family & Community Services located in Rockland Maine that provides after-school programs that include community service, leadership and enrichment opportunities to all youth ages 11-17 from anywhere in mid-coast Maine. Teens in the after-school programs learn skills, build self-esteem, cultivate social responsibility, develop leadership abilities and connect to their peers, to adult mentors, and to their communities. After-school programs are free for participating youth. Youthlinks is funded through a combination of state grants and the generous donations of individuals, businesses, and foundations.
