About
Empowering Park Heights residents, the Langston Hughes Community, Business & Resource Center offers a welcoming space for community events and critical resources. From job training to mental health support, the center fosters a collaborative environment to address community needs.
Our Story
Youth Education Services(YES) is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that was founded by George E. Mitchell in 2017 in hopes of creating equitable access to educational services through libraries in the park heights community at Langston Hughes Community, Business and Resource Center (LHCBRC).
In the first few years, we were successful in opening (3) libraries within the facility that provided books and resources for youth, adolescents and seniors. As the center continued to engage the community, we worked to address additional needs such as food, clothing, mental health, child care, substance abuse, education and employment needs by partnering with community stakeholders to provide wrap-a-round support and services within the facility.
Our Mission
Youth Education Services mission is to enrich the lives of residents in Park Heights by being a safe place where families can connect to organizations, resources and other individuals. Our vision is to create a space that provides mental health support, mentorship programs, educational support, employment trainings, certifications and additional programming and supports that reduces community violence and interrupts the cycle of poverty by creating a pathway for long-term success.
Our Future
We are committed to the Park Heights community. Our goal is to empower residents by providing a safe space for families to connect, access resources, and build relationships.
From mentorship programs and educational support to mental health services and employment training, we are dedicated to interrupting the cycle of poverty and creating a pathway for long-term success.
