The Mahomet Area Youth Club (MAYC) is a not-for-profit youth club that serves members ages 6-18 and their families. MAYC supports after school programming including B.L.A.S.T. and Kid’s Club, an all-day program at the clubhouse during winter, spring, and summer break, a jr. after-school club, a high school building club called Bulldog Makers, a work study program that partners with local businesses to provide on the job training, and space for the A.T.L.A.S program during the school year. For over 1,000 youth each year, we work to improve attendance, grades, behavior, and school engagement. These indicators have been proven to enhance high school graduation rates, improve engagement in the community, decrease interactions with law enforcement, and generate long term successes. We are teaching and supporting youth to develop to their fullest potential to become responsible, respectful, caring, and productive citizens.
