How kids spend their time is important.
We realized the youth in our community needed more positive outlets, so we made it our mission to be part of the solution.
​
CST is made up of people from the very community we serve, so it gives us first hand insight into exactly what our kids need. We’re helping shape a better tomorrow by offering resources, positive influences, and specially catered activities to the youth in our community.
Children Striving Together isn’t your average after-school special.
The “CST effect” is all about the way youth leave our organization. With every event, activity, and encounter at CST, we let our youth know we’re here for them.
Our organization is about more than activities. We’re here to mentor and add value to children’s futures. When youth enter any new chapter of their lives, we want them to have a positive effect on the people they encounter.
How We Help L.A. and Orange County Youth Thrive
Enrichment
We know that as our youth get older, they have more options which means more opportunities to find themselves in challenging situations. We strive to empower our youth through enrichment activities such as arts and crafts, teen book clubs, field trips, and much more. It is our goal to enhance their quality of life outside the classroom.
