Our Story

EMPOWERING YOUNG PEOPLE TO DISCOVER THEIR TRUE POTENTIAL

At AMIkids Tallahassee, we believe in the power of transformation. Every young person has the potential for greatness, and we’re on a mission to unlock it. Our after-school prevention program provides education, workforce development, and behavior and skills training for students ages 11-17.

By offering career pathways and industry-recognized certifications, we equip them with the tools needed for success in both school and life. With a focus on mentorship, community partnerships, and hands-on learning, we create an environment where young people feel supported, valued, and ready to achieve their full potential.

Services

What We Offer

COMMUNITY-BASED PROGRAMS

Community-based programs offer daily services to youth and families, with youth returning home each day if programming takes place outside of the home. We offer eight unique services with our community-based programs.

After School

After school programs offer a variety of activities such as tutoring, career readiness, and technical training to students during after-school hours. AMIkids After School programs provide students with comprehensive programming and support services to engage youth in positive opportunities that prepare them for success.
