University Area Enrichment Association

UAEA exists to bring together the diverse people and resources of the University Area in ways that directly improve the quality of life for residents of this neighborhood.  We engage, educate, equip and build community leadership through the University District Freedom School, our 8-week summer literacy program for K-12 scholars, and our school year after school program.  Our Freedom School program has shown demonstrated literacy gains for our scholars. We work with a great number of community partners and a wide network of supporters.  Our location in the middle of the University Area, at Summit UMC, continues to help us serve the diverse community and helps foster a tremendous pipeline to young talented leaders.  This year, our greatest focus is to establish the right leadership and standard operations for success both in our Freedom School and after school program.
