OVERVIEW:
Happy Summer 2020!!!

The Northwest Detroit Youth Coalition (NWDYC) and all of our benefactors and affiliates hope and pray that all of you are staying safe and doing well during these very tumultuous times!

As this pandemic (COVID-19) has changed the very fabric of our very lives, the NWDYC, and the way in which we serve your children, is also changing! 

In an effort to stay connected to you and your children, we are hosting a FREE Online Virtual Summer Program.

The Summer Program will run from July 6 - July 31, 2020 and we will meet virtually each Tuesday and Thursday from 9am - 2:30pm. Additionally, on each Friday of the Program (July 10th, 17th, 24th, and 31st) we will host a Drive-Thru Food Drive, specifically for YOU!!!

As we prepare to bring your children our first ever Online Virtual Summer Program, we want to understand your family's interest in enrolling your child in our Program!
