The Youth Development Center Inc

Our Story

The Youth Development Center (YDC) was founded in 1990 by a dedicated group of community leaders and business professionals who recognized the need for youth development in Winchester, Frederick, and Clarke County. With the generous donation of a home and land by Tom and Sheila Baker, YDC established a three-building campus that has become a vital resource for local adolescents. Over the years, YDC has expanded its facilities and programs, engaging over half of the area's middle and high school students.

Impact

The Activity Building serves as a vibrant hub for young people, promoting a drug and alcohol-free lifestyle through various programs and events, including New Year's Eve celebrations, After the Prom gatherings, and Super Bowl parties.

Why Donate?

Your generous contributions enable YDC to continue offering essential youth programs and maintain a dynamic space that inspires and activates the next generation.
