Welcome to Youth Services
The San Luis Obispo Parks and Recreation Youth Services Division believes that each child is unique and special. Every child is celebrated and provided the tools for success in a safe, supportive environment. All youth will have the opportunity to build long-lasting relationships with peers of all ages and participate in a non-biased curriculum. Trained staff will guide children in developing assets: tools and skills for succeeding in any situation. Whether children attend on a regular basis or just drop in on an as needed basis, they will be welcomed into the program.
