David Clark’s Dance Camp is developed to meet the current needs of Mount Vernon Communities. The focus for the program’s success is to combat the challenges of lack of parental involvement, ways to deal with stress and depression, lack of role models or mentors, the need for volunteer opportunities as well as employment, risk of gang involvement, drug and alcohol consumption, and other high risk behavior that negatively affect the youth.

 

We will strive to help our youth find and act upon reaching their academic and social goals as well as take positive steps in finding themselves and making progress to build their futures and shaping better communities for future generations, starting from their early years. We plan to provide special events, sports tournaments, and performances that will promote strong communities. Our goal is to foster a commitment to all young people that will promote pro social friendships, rebuild family structure, interpersonal skills and reassert a sense of hope within their future.
