Winton Place Youth Center

Winton Place Youth Center serves the children of Cincinnati's Winton Place neighborhood. We offer a caring and safe atmosphere and the skilled intervention of professionals and volunteers. The children in our program progress academically, socially, and personally.

Our goal is to make a positive difference in the lives of these children, both now and for the future. We focus on the development of the whole child. We offer homework assistance, counseling and peer groups. We also focus on prevention education, to give the children the skills they need to stay safe and drug-free. We teach how to avoid abusive situations by helping our children practice effective refusal skills.

With input from parents, observation and academic testing, we develop a personalized strategy for each child.

You can help. Our children need responsible volunteers to help with homework and other activities at our Center. Our valued volunteers deliver thousands of hours of service to the children each year. Volunteers are carefully screened to ensure the highest degree of safety for the children.

Our children also benefit from donations to the Center. We put donations to work in programs that transform the lives of the children and their families.

Please contact Lucia Palmarini, Executive Director, to discuss how you can help our children.
