Bresee employs a staff comprised of energetic, highly skilled individuals with a passion for our community. Building strong, supportive relationships is key to our ministry. Going beyond their job descriptions, staff members coach teams, visit ailing clients in the hospital, act as court advocates, and help students enroll in college. They organize donations for families in need, and sit through long graduation ceremonies. Through all the challenges and triumphs of life, Bresee Community Center members can count on our compassionate staff to share the journey.
Program staff are assigned to one of three teams, and are responsible for implementing our visions in the following areas:
Education & Career Development
programs provide youth with academic tutoring and homework assistance,
job development and college prep services during after-school hours.
Both youth and adults are offered computer access and training as well
as arts and multimedia production workshops in our 14-station CyberCafé
open access lab and 28-station CyberHood computer training center.
Family Support Services
address healthcare needs through an on-site, licensed community clinic,
education and prevention workshops, outreach activities, and dental
care services. Comprehensive case management services are provided in
the areas of family self-sufficiency, parenting and juvenile justice.
Leadership & Social Development
programs offer youth (ages 11-21) safe and healthy after-school opportunities
including leadership training, and fun, social activities offered in
our on-site recreation center. Summer camps, local field trips, and
organized sports leagues give youth opportunity to build healthy relationships
with peers who live outside their neighborhood.
Administrative
staff members are responsible for managing fiscal operations with integrity,
maintaining our facilities, managing human resources, fundraising, and
administrating our technology infrastructure.
