Our Mission is to create and maintain a safe and secure environment where each youth will be treated with dignity and respect. Our focus is to nurture positive social interactions utilizing education, recreational and cultural programs. JYP is a non profit after school program serving children 4-9 years old in the Canajoharie and surrounding areas. We have been providing a safe friendly environment for children for over six years and pride ourselves in teaching “a garden of good manners” in fun and innovative ways. We help with homework, play games, do arts & crafts and keep the children active! A place where children are well supervised and individually cared for while making life-long friends and memories
Busing is available from the Canajoharie Central School. Monday through Friday following the school calendar. For the safety of the children and our staff, JYP will close when Canajoharie Central School closes or cancels after school activities due to hazardous road conditions. Closings are posted on www.canajoharieschools.org
We provide 3 healthy snacks, plus milk and juice, to every child, every day. Keeping our snacks healthy is very important to JYP, as many children lack proper nutrition and some may even skip meals at home. JYP is a completely independent 501c3 non-profit program, not affiliated with any church or other programs. Space is generously provided by River of Jubilee Church, 5057 NY Route 5S, Sprakers, NY 12166. We are just a quick 3 miles straight drive down 5S from downtown Canajoharie.
