Broadway Youth Center

One of the community programs/organizations that I have heard about in Chicago is the Broadway Youth Center, and is a branch of Howard Brown and their services. They provide a place for kids to hang out, get help with legal issues and basic heath issues, community outreach programs, counseling, support groups and free testing and safe sex supplies. I learned about this program from one of the people who works there who came to one of my classes here. While I haven't been to the BYC, I couldn't have been more impressed with it after hearing about it. The man who told us about their services was very friendly, informative and seemed to really care about the kids they were helping.
