Youth Programs

The Navy Child and Youth Program (CYP) supports military and DoD families worldwide as they protect and serve our country. We do this by providing high quality, innovative, accessible, and affordable child care that supports school readiness and recreational programs for children and youth.

Youth are actively and appropriately engaged in before/after school, sports, and recreational activities that focus on building self-esteem, developing appropriate relationships, facilitating academic success, and making healthy choices. CYP offers various programs for children and youth from 5-18 years of age. School Age facilities cater to children ages 5-12 years old (or Kindergarten to sixth grade). The teen center is a safe, constructive hang out for teens 13-18 years old.

No events are scheduled at this time.

Youth Sponsorship

Youth Sponsorship is a peer-to-peer program, conducted with support from the School Age Centers. Youth can request a sponsor before they move to Hawaii and we will match them up with a local student who has similar interests, of the same sex. Our local sponsor will communicate with the incoming youth before they get to Hawaii and when they do arrive, our local sponsor will show them around and help them meet new friends.
