Plymouth Christian Youth Center / The Capri

PCYC: Proudly serving North Minneapolis for 68 years.

PCYC is rooted in our historic community, enriching the skills, prospects and spirit of North Minneapolis area youth and adults, in partnership with families and communities. The agency manages three dynamic programs:

• PYC Arts & Technology High School: Our contract alternative school that provides students a wealth of ways to earn credit toward graduation.
• Bright Futures K-5 Enrichment: Our after school and summer programs offer year-long educational and social/emotional skills-building activities for K-5 youth.
• The Capri: Newly expanded and renovated, the Capri is home to the Legends music series, First Thursday Films, Summer Camp Capri, the Capri Glee! Community Choir, and much more.

At PCYC, we prioritize our students’ mental and emotional needs alongside their academic wellbeing.  After these turbulent past two years, we are especially mindful of how our PYC Arts & Tech Alternative High School students are recovering socially and emotionally as well as academically.   

This year, we invite you to help us meet our Give to the Max goal of $6,200.

Meeting this goal will allow us to bring, trained social and emotional healing professionals to coach our students in trauma-informed practices twice per week for 16 weeks.

These experienced professionals will:

• Encourage open conversation and help students explore coping strategies.
• Help students form healthy habits through guided mediation, breath work sessions, and teacher-led yoga sessions.
• Instill in students an understanding of the importance of their mental health, and the support that's available to them.

Please join us in honoring our students with a donation in any amount today!
