About Crittenton Community Center
Located near downtown Columbus and accessible from Interstate 70, Crittenton Community Center supports youth in high-risk neighborhoods by preventing substance use, violence, and delinquent behavior through structured after-school and summer programs. Their services include tutoring, leadership development, life skills groups, and substance use prevention education. The center offers school-based programming rather than outpatient or residential care, creating a safe environment where young people can grow, learn, and thrive.
Foster Confidence Through Learning
The center uses a prevention-focused approach that blends evidence-based education with creative and recreational therapies. Programs strengthen decision-making, resilience, and social-emotional skills while offering alternatives to risky behaviors. Youth benefit from group discussions, peer support, and activities designed to improve confidence and personal responsibility. By integrating tutoring, fitness, and healthy lifestyle education, the center equips participants with practical tools for success inside and outside the classroom.
Lead With Art and Action
Crittenton Community Center also provides unique opportunities for creative expression and leadership. Young people can explore music, dance, visual arts, and computer skills, while Healthy Leaders groups address conflict resolution, anger management, and substance use prevention. Community service projects encourage giving back, while a full gymnasium, computer lab, and healthy meals ensure a supportive environment. These programs give youth meaningful experiences that build self-esteem, foster connection, and prepare them for future success.
