Founded in 1996 in Flint, MI under the leadership of Bettina Campbell, LMSW (Executive Director), YOUR Center responded to a community-wide survey that identified gaps and barriers that have prevented Genesee County residents in transforming their neighborhoods to higher performing communities, districts and cities.
YOUR Center began addressing these needs by becoming an authority in HIV/AIDS awareness and education. Moving forward, YOUR Center has been a pillar in the Flint and Genesee County area - assisting, serving, and advocating for area residents.
In 2001, YOUR Center noticed the increasing technological gaps that Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) faced as they attempted to build technical capacity within their agencies. These gaps were even broader in the educational arenas, as it relates to the technical skills that our youth need to compete in the global economy.
In response, YOUR Center has expanded its scope of service to providing Community Development and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) with an emphasis on Business Systems, Web Develop, and Visual Communication assist Community in developing the infrastructure needed to attract, develop, and maintain residents that are globally competitive knowledge workers.
