Parents and caregivers in the 48224 community, we see you. You want your teen to have a safe place to grow, express themselves, build confidence, and learn real‑life skills that prepare them for the future. That’s exactly why we created the Pathway to ReJoyce Afterschool Program a 17‑week journey designed to support the whole teen: mind, emotions, creativity, and purpose.

Beginning February 9, 2026, teens ages 13–17 will step into a space where they are seen, supported, and empowered.
