The purpose of the San Pedro Youth Coalition is to assure that the youth
of San Pedro, California, have available to them numerous, wholesome activities
year-round that will attempt to develop both the body and mind of the individual,
as well as, his or her social skills.
BACKGROUND:
The SAN PEDRO YOUTH COALITION was formed in 1988 to promote and
support positive activities for the youth of San Pedro. Activities are
financed through the generous contributions of our members, concerned citizens,
workplace giving campaigns, local business sponsorships, service organization
donations, and foundation grants.
The SAN PEDRO YOUTH COALITION is operated by a board of directors
consisting of community volunteers. Each member of the Board lives and/or
works in the San Pedro area and is dedicated to supporting and fostering
positive activities for the youth of San Pedro.
BOARD MEETINGS:
The SAN PEDRO YOUTH COALITION Board of Directors holds its monthly
meetings at 7:00 p.m. on the second Wednesday of the month at the Peck Park
Community Center, 560 N. Western Avenue, San Pedro. The public and representatives
from local youth-oriented organizations are invited to attend. Those wishing
to be included on the meeting agenda are encouraged to contact the SAN
PEDRO YOUTH COALITION in advance at (310) 831-9302.
LOW COST MEMBERSHIPS:

for the minimum membership fee of $35 per year. Of course, additional contributions
are always welcome and will help sustain and expand our programs. A membership

Volunteers Needed:
Since we strive to keep services high and costs low, we are always seeking
dedicated volunteers to assist with the delivery of our programs and activities.

year at the San Pedro Public Library, provides excellent opportunities for
gratifying volunteer work. Those interested in serving as a volunteer for
any of our programs are encouraged to contact us at (310) 831-9302, or you
