Kids On Track is a community-building organization that provides hope, direction, and ongoing support for children, youth, and their parents.
Educational, social, spiritual, and recreational elements are combined to deliver well-rounded programs. We cultivate relationships, encouraging participants in faith, character and leadership development, social skills, and a healthy lifestyle. We strive to support families experiencing limited opportunities due to various socioeconomic challenges.
Since 1992, we have expanded our programs to respond to changing needs in the community and new opportunities to help at-risk kids and their families. We currently have more than 1,000 participants actively engaged in our programs. Our volunteer base has grown to a team of more than 314 volunteers who collectively contributed 4,469 service hours in our last fiscal year (Sept. 1, 2018 – Aug. 31, 2019).
