Gaming Club Expansion

Help me give my students the opportunity to have access to a video game club. I work with detained youth and would like to provide an opportunity for a small portion of normalcy.

My Project

Hello, I work with detained youth in a very restrictive environment. Being able to provide the group time to play in an after-school club has been super rewarding. I am currently bringing in personal consoles and would like to expand what I can offer in the limited club time available to the youth.

Being able to provide a safe space for the kids to play games and interact together in a positive way has been really rewarding.

I hope by expanding that I can allow more kids to attend the club and continue to build on teamwork and positive communication guidelines that are part of club expectations.
