One of WACP’s most important contributions to the community of Winston is the management of the Winston Teen Center. The Teen Center serves as a hub for after-school and summer programs for community youth. It provides a safe and nurturing space to spend time post-school as well as offering a variety of engaging youth programs. The center also serves a daily free nutritious meal, in partnership with the USDA. The Teen Center works hard to provide the tools needed to expand the hearts and minds of the under-served young people of Winston.
