A PLACE FOR KIDS
NāNāKULI CENTER OFFERS FUN, SAFETY
When school's out in Nānākuli, students get active at the Youth Education Town center. It's a place where dodgeball, dancing, art and music meet, providing afterschool activities for these elementary-aged kids.
"We've given them a sense of belonging here," said Program Director Claudia Fernandez. "They can come here to have fun, be safe and get off the streets. (We'll) teach them resistance skills, like staying away from alcohol, tobacco and other drugs."
This is one of 14 YET programs across the nation sponsored by the National Football League. With a $1 million donation from NFL, the Nānākuli YET program built an all-green facility.
