A popular afterschool program serving Flint’s youth is welcoming new students aboard.

YouthQuest, a 32-week extracurricular initiative that provides activities structured around academics, physical fitness, science, math, technology, and leadership development, begins Sept. 17 at more than a dozen Genesee County schools.

“YouthQuest offers a safe place for students to explore new interests and build positive relationships with peers and mentors,” says Cheryl Adkins, program director. “In doing so, it prepares them to succeed in school, at home and beyond.”

Administered by the Flint & Genesee Chamber of Commerce, YouthQuest, receives primary support from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation and 21st Century Community Learning Centers. The program will be available to youth enrolled at Flint Community Schools including:

  • Brownell STEM Academy
  • Doyle-Ryder Elementary

  • Eisenhower Elementary
  • Freeman Elementary (began YouthQuest in August)
  • Holmes STEM Academy
  • Neithercut Elementary
