CityYouth Ministries is committed to meeting the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of at-risk youth. We are helping children through the delivery of spiritual, educational and recreational programs that develop personal responsibility and spiritual values.

Every day CityYouth provides a hot meal to children ages six to eighteen at no cost to them. We have a tutoring and

homework session as well as life-skills development including resume building, job interviewing skills, etiquette, and community service. CityYouth provides a great deal of indoor recreational sports like basketball, roller-skating, and other activities and games. CityYouth has a daily Bible study and devotion in addition to other events designed to equip youth to succeed in every aspect of life.

CityYouth Ministries is a member agency of the United Way of Northeast Arkansas and is committed to working together to help our youth and to build a stronger community. CityYouth offers a positive alternative to the streets for many youth. Lt. Elliot, a spokesman for the F.O.P. and the Jonesboro Police says, "I see a direct link between the decline of the juvenile crime rate and the efforts of CityYouth Ministries." At CityYouth, we are changing the world one child at a time.
