A Family That Plays Together,
Stays Together
 

The Van Buren Youth and Community Center was established in May of 2000. Based on a survey of Van  Buren R-1 students it was determined that there was a need in our community for a Youth Center, a haven where kids could enjoy activities without the influence of drugs and alcohol. It has since evolved to accommodate not only the needs of the youth, but the entire community as a whole. This is the only staffed Community Center offering programs and services within a 50 mile radius. Another focus of the VBYCC is the health and fitness of our youth and adult population. We partner with the Carter County Health Center to offer health  and wellness fairs, workshops on health topics such as Heart Disease, Cancer, Diabetes and Children's Health Concerns. We have a walking program available to all citizens of Van Buren and surrounding areas and we also have a fully equipped fitness center. Twice weekly we offer an Exercising with Arthritis Program in partnership with Whole Health Outreach. In addition to programs organized sports.

Volunteering is one of the best ways to give back to your community.  We are in need of volunteers now more than ever, it takes community efforts to keep a community center up and running, please donate your time.  We thank each and every one of you who is willing to take time out of your day to help us out.
