"It's Like We're Family..."


Brian Taylor, 16 of Berryland has been a participant of Agape Community Center's After-School Program since he was 12 years old. His family moved into Berryland when he was 11.
When asked what keeps him coming back after all these years, Brian proclaims "I enjoy the staff, there are good people here who care about me...and it's fun", he says with a shy grin.

When inquired as to what some of his favorite activities are in Teen Scene (the teen portion of the After-School Program for youth ages 13-19) Brian answers "I like basketball, but I'm not huge on it, so I'd have to say the computer lessons and open lab time. But honestly, above all the activities, I just like hanging out with the people here...both kids and staff."

As for what Brian Taylor would like to see happen at Agape within the next year: "New blood! More people should come to the center. Oh, and a football league for teens!"
