Spring break, and it's chaos at the Spenard Rec Center. Controlled chaos.

 MISSION STATEMENT:
Ma'o Tosi's Alaska PRIDE program provides a positive environment for youth after school. AK PRIDE emphasizes the importance of education and success after high school. We work to keep kids safe and engaged, fostering optimism and a sense of opportunity through providing caring adult relationships in safe and fun environments and through facilitating educational enhancement and developmental activities, referral to youth services, support services and resources to youth in need.


WHAT WE DO:
We use music, art, dance, and athletics as an incentive tool, recognizing Alaska’s talented youth and young adults by creating opportunities to be recognized for these diverse talents.  All while using these incentives to teach and develop positive life, social and employability skills.
