    About Us

    Our programs are designed to improve academics and cultivate the crucial life skills our children need to thrive. Compass for Kids works on educating the children as whole persons, and recognizes that social, emotional, and life skills contribute to overall well-being and academic success.

    Our Programs:

    Club Compass is our out of school time program that meets once a week serving elementary students in Springfield Public Schools - District 186.

    Youth Leadership Development Program (YLDP) is designed to provide middle and high school alumni of Club Compass the opportunity to develop as leaders, and be prepared for college, vocational / trade school, the military, and/or to enter the workforce. The ultimate goal is for these youths to graduate from high school and be ready to achieve their dreams.

    Camp Compass is a free, summer learning program for underserved elementary students of Springfield, Illinois District 186 Schools.
