A space for teens in South Philly | Smith Memorial Playground
Manage episode 426240846 series 1924283
Pennsylvania’s funding for after-school care ends when children turn 13, and many parents are concerned about where their teens can go after school and in the summer. Caring People Alliance runs a teen program and recently opened a new center at their South Philadelphia Boys & Girls Club where teens can go to get a meal, play basketball, make music and art, and have a safe space to talk and learn. We speak with Branon Gilmore, VP of CPA’s Boys & Girls Club Movement, Jewel Felder-James, Director of Teen Programming, and Alphonso Cobbs, a participant in the teen program.
And on Shara in the City, Shara Dae Howard re-discovers the joy of play at the historic Smith Memorial Playground.
