MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN A CHILD’S LIFE

The historic Belafonte TACOLCY Center has been the foundation of the Liberty City community for 50 years. It has served as source of help, hope and a desired haven for resident children, youth and families. Our organization provides programs that drive home its mission of keeping families whole. This is done through:

  • Analyzing what obstacles might be standing in families' way that keep them from effectively helping their children;
  • Intervening with support;
  • And, reaching children at younger ages with preventive services.

TACOLCY advocates for Liberty City families by utilizing facts and models of success from policymakers as well as weaving a holistic set of values, programs and mentors to safeguard and nurture youth development, aiding in their transition to adulthood.
