Dedicated to enhancing the talents, lives and spirits of community youth through education, mentoring and linkages to resources.
Reverend Michael L. Pfleger named ”The Ark” to symbolize a safe haven for at-risk youth. From education to employment, The ARK offers a vast array of free programs for youth and young adults ages 6-28. The ARK serves between 70-120 youth on a daily basis in Englewood and Auburn-Gresham at no cost to them and their families.
See below for our most recent summer programs and updates, and as always,
Welcome to The Ark!
