Youth Development
Drugs–Alcohol–Sex–Bullying–Teens face difficult decisions daily. The Helping Youth Plan for Excellence program (HYPE) encourages teens to become part of the solution through the performing arts. Students practice skills in drama, music and dance. Caring adults establish positive relationships through coaching and mentoring. HYPE youth write, produce and perform their works in front of their peers at Kauffman Performing Arts Center and other venues in the KC area. The program reaches over 4,000 students annually.

Personal trainers are there every step of the way to serve youth, adults and seniors.

CCON responds to the critical need to reduce the number of new HIV/AIDS cases through education and HIV Screening. The CDC’s estimates show that African Americans, more than any other racial/ethnic group, continue to bear the greatest burden of HIV in the US. CCON’s approach maximizes the power of Black Churches to spread a message of Hope & Healing. Over 25 churches participate with CCON to bring health and healing to hurting people.
