The Access Youth Center strives to maintain a safe, family-friendly environment accessible to every youth in our community ages 8-18. We have a variety of programs that provide food and activities at locations throughout our city on weekdays, along with special events and educational opportunities onsite at our facility.

Our mission:

CARE for our neighbors-spiritually, academically, and relationally

CONNECT resources to need and compassion to plight; creating space to bring people together.

Encourage CHANGE of perspective and heart, of assumptions and outlook; within us and toward others.

CHALLENGE ourselves and our community to serve well. 


“Someone once described this place as ‘Wabash’s living room,’ and I think that’s a pretty good example of what we want to be and what we are.”
— Liz Hobbs - Former Director and Beloved Volunteer
