Adult Programs

(Ages 18+)
The Learning Center provides educational, cultural and recreational activities to Mt. Hope residents of all ages. It is the adults of the Mt. Hope neighborhood who have provided the most resources in the form of donations, volunteer labor, materials and volunteer teachers, tutors and committee members.

The spirit of community and volunteerism runs deep, as is evident in the sustaining momentum and pro-active commitment of Mt. Hope's residents. If it weren't for the Mt. Hope area adults concerned with quality of life, as well as educational and career attainment and personal growth, the Learning Center would not exist.
