The Friends of the Addison Youth Center

Located in the Village of Addison, The FAYC provides after-school programming for their high-risk, low income families, as well as the general youth population. The mission of the Friends of the Addison Youth Center, Inc. (AYC) is "To provide a safe, nurturing and enriching environment in which we foster the educational, emotional and social development of our youth thereby allowing them to maximize their potential for growth and success." 

Who We Are

The Program has been serving youth for over 20 years in the Addison Central School District after school and during the summer. Programs include social, emotional, and recreational activities daily.  The program serves students in grades K-12 during after school hours. Programming hours are from 2:30 to 6:00 P.M. and offer age-appropriate educational, recreational, and social activities. Daily you will see over 130 members participating in activities. AYC works with other community resources such as the Science and Discovery Center, the Cornell Cooperative Extension and the Steuben Council on Addictions, The Arts of the Southern Finger Lakes, and Kid's Farmer Market through the Food Bank of The Southern Tier to extend our programming opportunities. Our mission is to provide a safe, nurturing and enriching environment in which we foster the educational, emotional and social development of our youth, thereby allowing them to maximize their potential for growth and success.
