What has BTWCSC been up to Regarding COVID-19?

BTWCSC responded to the COVID-19 pandemic rapidly and with a focus on the most pressing needs of the Western Addition children, youth, families and especially our Seniors. Our entire staff worked remotely for three weeks as soon as the Shelter in Place Order was issued, and we focused our efforts on our digital summer camp for our children and become first responders and on food security and social isolation for our community.

  • Exposure is everything and Booker T. Washington exposure field trips helps some many our children, especially those of color, to be exposed to new activities and programs in the city. These partnerships help our youth in feeling like any neighborhood is accessible to them and that life is bigger than their home district.

  • I will always be grateful for the various experiences my daughter had with Booker T, from singing/acting in onstage plays to surfing to learning how to ride a bike!

  • I love asking my Mila ``What did you do at Booker T today?`` because I am almost always amazed by her answers. She's developed interests in coding, piano, and fencing all through the wonderful lessons offered at the After School Program. The caring and dedicated staff have really supported her through her growth and have made me and the rest of her family feel like a welcomed part of the community. We are just so thankful for Booker T!
