About the Provider
Prime Time Youth Focus was established in 1997. We serve before and after school children from ages six to 16 years old, including mentally and physically challenged children, and beyond as special needs arise. A tutorial service, as well as summer camp and transportation is provided. Our program is sponsored by United Way Funds which help to purchase computers, software, equipment and supplies. This grant has afforded children recreational and education trips during the summer program and public school interims.
