Beacon House has been a proud federal 21st Century Community Learning Center program grantee for 10 years. We participated in this year's grantee Summer Institute in Philadelphia this week and were delighted to see staff of current summer camp program partner @common__threads, which provides hands-on cooking and nutrition education programs, in attendance. #21stcenturycommunitylearningcenters @usedgov

Can you believe we are in the last week of summer camp?! We've been having a blast! Thanks @unitedwaynca for your support of this year's camp session!

Our 11u American Youth Football (AYF) team won last weekend in the Metro AYF 7v7 Passing Tournament, making them eligible to play Saturday at St. John's College High School in the Metro AYF 1st Look 7v7 Passing League Under Armour game. Good luck, team!

Our teen authors are with the @wusa9 camera crew talking about their new book "The Day Tajon Got Shot!" Look for us on air soon! 🎥 ✏️

Our teen authors celebrated the launch of their book, "The Day Tajon Got Shot" with a huge crowd supporting them at Busboys and Poets Brookland. Girls read their character descriptions, professional actors with Young Playwrights' Theater performed scenes the girls had written, poet Camisha Jones read her work featured in the book, and Critical Exposure photographer showcased his photos from Baltimore featured in the book. A tremendous thank you to our partner, Shout Mouse Press!

Join us 5/30 6-8pm at @busboysandpoets Brookland for launch, "The Day Tajon Got Shot," a book written by Beacon House teen authors with our partner @shoutmousepress

It's graduation season! We are proud of our Master of Social Work interns who graduated this spring, Danielle (left) from Catholic University and Kameko (right) from Howard University. Beacon House Director of Programs & Operations and MSW intern supervisor, Danielle (center) is wishing them farewell and good luck! We look forward to a new group of interns in the fall!
