Youth & Adolescent Programs

Eastern students have the opportunity to volunteer in our local Windham after school programs which create opportunities to support the educational and well-being of local youth ages 4 to 18.

Windham Public Schools provides after school programs to all of its five elementary schools along with the WIndham Middle School. CCE staff and student leaders develop activities for volunteers to facilitate at each site. Volunteers may assist with homework, read interactively to promote literacy, lead physical activities to promote physical health, and engage the children in a variety of other enrichment activities.

Nutmeg Big Brothers Big Sisters

Another opportunity the center holds is our reoccurring mentoring program Nutmeg Big Brother Big Sisters. For more than 100 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring program operated that every child has the ability to succeed, thrive and reach their fullest potential in life. Volunteers will work with Windham High students on developing a positive self-image and being able to draw upon that image to support themselves in all situations.

Being a Big Brother or Big Sister mentor is one of the most enjoyable things you'll ever do, not to mention one of the most fulfilling. You have the opportunity to help shape a child’s future for the better by empowering them to achieve. You and your Little can share the kinds of activities you already like to do. Please keep in mind if you register for the program, you must be available during the times that are provided.
