This youth center is now equipped to help students in their studies, and everyday life.  We are in an excellent location to serve both the students of Due West and the students in this community.  With this we are providing a place that is safe and a place were students love to bring friends.  It is inviting as well as exciting.

Car fatalities are the leading cause of deaths among teens by a huge percentage.  We are developing a center with a driving simulator, teachers to help instruct in safer driving, and classes to help students understand everything from changing a tire to maintaining their own car. We hope this could be the start of a trend towards safer driving.

Tutoring
Our Youth Center is a primary center for tutors to meet with students. We have enlisted several church members who are willing to give of their time to help students through a tutoring ministry and they are also bringing in others who will help tutor students in a wide variety of subjects. If you are in need of assistance in school work please contact Lynn Ilitzky at 770-427-3835 ext. 238 or at lilitzky@duewest.org.
