About Us
Who we are: For 75 years, The Carver Center’s purpose has been to Build Brighter Futures for the Port Chester Community. Carver is at a pivotal inflection point of accelerated growth as we evolve from a traditional community center into a community learning organization. We are sharpening our focus on learning to ensure that our services become the catalyst for meeting our mission!
What we believe in: We measure success one individual at a time, as we are passionate and hyper-focused on improving and transforming lives across all stages of our learning continuum; an ideology that we embrace and practice within our staff, board of directors, and all other members of the Carver family. We intend to continuously elevate our standard of excellence across all facets of the organization, while maintaining our belief in outcome measurement and collective results. We are a culture of ‘YES’ which encourages free-thinking, risk-taking, and innovation as we strive to meet our mission every day.
