This summer, SLHA’s LaSalle Park Summer Hub (The Hub) and Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) helped make the summer months meaningful for local youth.
Held weekly, The Hub gave young residents opportunities to learn, explore, build meaningful relationships and enjoy educational, recreational and enrichment activities with their neighbors.
“The kids enjoy when we come, and they always say they wish we could be there every day during the summer,” Hub lead and ROSS Service Coordinator Camille Shoals Shoals shared.
And while The Hub kept youth learning and engaged each week, ROSS Service Coordinator Justin Mosely led SLHA’s SFSP, providing daily nutritious meals and snacks to LaSalle Park youth while school was out.
We are grateful to the community partners who shared their time, talents and resources to help make these experiences possible, including CAM STL, St. Louis Public Library, Healthy Hair 2Day Foundation, Mobile Y, Ready Readers, Community Development Institute Head Start, BJC School Outreach and Youth Development, the Pediatric Injury Prevention Program at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital, U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services.
Together, our staff, families and community partners helped create a summer filled with learning, exploration, connection and fun! ...
