South Street Youth Center has been an integral part of my development and transformation from a young boy to a man. The college tours we went on opened my eyes to possibilities beyond my neighborhood and I was able to explore professions and culture in a brand new way. I went from a young person who stayed in trouble and the help of the youth center made me believe in myself and I'm so thankful for their support through High School and helping me graduate college. ~Joel DeValle
