Summer Enrichment Program

The Summer Enrichment Program actively involves students ages 5 - 12 years old in activities to avoid the "brain dump" that can occur when a child leaves school. Our program keeps children's minds and bodies active through physical activities such as Zumba and Yoga. Students are involved in fun-filled educational activities that support science, technology, engineering, and math (S.T.E.M.). Literacy is a focus to ensure skills remain on target for re-entry to school. The program emphasizes developing soft skills – strengthening peer relationships and ties with adults and developing persistence that can shape students’ motivation, and increase feelings of belonging, and self-confidence. Our summer enrichment program is active during the summer months when school is not in regular session. 

Education Cooperative Program

IMLC Education Cooperative incorporates a balance of fun activities and technology in a safe, supportive environment. The program is offered during “School-Out” sessions. Through our programs, students strengthen their academic skills, and knowledge, deepen communication skills with adults and peers, and engage in project-based learning and cross-curricular activities. We tie all our activities to academic learning based on the curriculum taught by the local school system and enriching the education of youth outside of school through a variety of learning techniques. As a bonus, our students are being social while they’re working in the cooperative learning environment. The goal of using this strategy is for students to work together to achieve a common goal. 

Family Counseling and Reunification

Our organization believes in family. In order to keep families together we work in collaboration with social service agencies and other community partners to support family reunification and stabilization of children who have been separated from their mothers.
