To date it caters to individuals from as far as St. Thomas and St. Catherine.
The centre prepares students for:
• Grade Six Achievement Test (GSAT)
• Grade Nine Achievement Test (GNAT)
• HEART Level 1 examinations in Garment Construction, Furniture Manufacturing and Electrical Installation.
Students are also exposed to Computer Education and Sports.
These skills areas allow both males and females age seventeen (17) and older to begin the path to a successful career. Each skill area opens the door to a future that was unthinkable to these children. They can become designers, electricians and carpenters. As part of their course, students get hands on experience of the working world. Students are also exposed to Computer Education and Sports.
The centre operates an outreach feeding programme, as well as a clinic that caters to the school population, the elderly and the wider community. It also operates a community library, fully sponsored by Jamaica Self Help Canada.
 The staff, students, parents and the broader community work as a team
to give the youths a chance to make better lives for themselves. We
are proud to host parent training programmes in effective parenting
techniques in dealing with children as well as to offer to the
community ways to alleviate crime problems and at the same time give
the students a chance to be skilled workers for life.
