To provide a safe haven for growth: spiritually, emotionally, educationally, socially and physically.
OUR LOCATION:
1508 S. Sutter Street
THE CENTER:
An after school retreat where kids can be kids
We believe "it is better to build children than repair adults." Children who grow up in the inner city deserve the opportunity to learn there are better choices than the gangs, drugs, and violence they live with every day. Children at The Center are introduced to the foundation of love, God's Word and tough boundaries so they can make good decisions and develop strong values to live happy, successful lives.

Testimonials
It is with pleasure that I write about the positive impact, dedication, and commitment Chaplain Bob has for our school community at Spanos Elementary. Chaplain Bob wears many hats from assisting students and their families with conflict resolution to having one-on-one conversations with students who challenge discipline policies. At times, he has also assisted with navigating conflicts among parents and staff personnel. He does this with a firm, yet caring manner that makes him an invaluable member of our team here at Spanos. It is only evident Chaplain Bob has a passion for helping others and that is truly his gift and best quality. He goes the extra mile in all of his endeavors. For this, he is highly respected and well liked for his efforts and outstanding work ethic. Thank you, Bob, for giving your best to our students, parents and staff! You are one of a kind.
