"The JCC After School program is wonderful. My daughter is always happy to go, doesn't want to leave, and clearly feels very much at home there. The staff is caring, creative, and responsive. The activities are always interesting and expansive. I especially love that you emphasize healthy cooking, gardening, and teamwork. I also feel like you all model and teach the children to be kind and respectful to one another in ways that are rooted in ethics as much as behavior. We're lucky and grateful to be part of what you all do so well."-Jen, J-Space parent
