Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Youth Programs
The After School Program provides a safe, welcoming, and encouraging environment for school aged youth, and supports their success in school through homework help and tutoring, English as a second language instruction, college and career readiness programs, academic enrichment, creative arts programming, counseling, environmental education, physical recreation, and social emotional wellness programming as well as a hot meal from Dare to Care Kids’ Café. Our youth programming focuses on holistic development, allowing youth to thrive in all aspects of life.
Adult Services
Through multiple community partnerships, Americana offers Community Engagements, Family Coaching, Fiberworks, Welcome Navigators, Adult Mentoring, the Kitchen Incubator Project, Adult Education Services (including citizenship classes, English as a Second Language classes, digital literacy classes, and GED classes), a Community Garden, Case Management, and VITA Tax Programming.
Family Education Program
The Family Education Program supports immigrant and refugee parents in acquiring the tools necessary to promote their children’s academic success, while increasing their own English language proficiency and meeting health, education, and personal goals. This is accomplished by incorporating English language instruction with family coaching and workshops to increase understanding of U.S. social systems (health care, school enrollment, etc.), healthy choices, and personal responsibility with the goal of helping families successfully integrate into their new surroundings. Parents and their children participate in activities together, promoting parents in their role as a child’s first teacher and improving collaboration as a family unit. While caregivers attend the adult education courses, children participate in developmentally appropriate activities, such as learning social or academic skills to increase school preparedness.
Community Engagement
Americana brings the community together through festivals, cultural celebrations and performances, career fairs, Welcome Navigator Trainings, and more.
