Developing Future Leaders

The Youth Guidance Pathways Afterschool Program includes fun, engaging activities to help children (ages 6-18) excel academically, develop critical life skills, and explore meaningful career paths.

Activities include: Tutoring with certified teachers, drone flying, cooking, sewing, outdoor recreation, carpentry, and more! 

Children receive healthy snacks daily through our partnership with the Indian River County School District. 

The Pathways Afterschool Program is provided at no cost to students thanks to the generosity of the Indian River County community. 

Pathways occurs Monday through Friday after school from 3:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

Stay Tuned: Applications for Pathways will become available in August of 2025!
