PROGRAMS THAT SHAPE FUTURES

Si Se Puede Academic Center

Our Si Se Puede program offers academic and professional support to both CYBC members and community youth. Through one-on-one tutoring, group study sessions, and help with scholarships and résumés, we prepare students for success beyond high school. Participants gain hands-on experience through project-based learning, explore career and trade opportunities, and visit colleges to plan their next steps.

Enrichment & Field Trips

We believe learning extends beyond the gym. CYBC hosts enrichment activities such as yoga, dance, and nutrition classes, and takes youth on trips to museums, beaches, sporting events, and even college campuses. These experiences open doors, broaden horizons, and help youth connect with their community and the wider world.

After School Matters

Through our After School Matters program, high school students gain valuable part-time work experience at CYBC. They assist coaches, support daily programming, and take on administrative tasks, building skills they can use in any future career.

Health & Wellness

Our Health & Wellness programming educates youth on nutrition and healthy eating while providing regular access to healthy snacks. Weekly snack programs and bi-monthly culinary courses give participants the knowledge and tools to make nutritious choices that fuel both mind and body.

Local Events and Gatherings

CYBC hosts vibrant community events that celebrate and connect our North Lawndale and Little Village neighbors. From picnics, BBQs, and block parties to festivals with music, poetry, athletic games, and cultural traditions, we honor both our heritage and Chicago roots while creating shared memories beyond the gym.
