The Watts Empowerment Center is the 12,900 sq ft state-of-the-art facility committed to the children, youth, and families within Watts Housing Projects.
These 3.3 acres are the heartbeat of the community. Locals can discover their purpose and develop their talents with the help of top industry and business professionals that provide mentorship to many within the community.
Resources offered range from Sports Leagues, After School Tutoring, STEM Media Lab, Culinary Arts Kitchen, Performing Arts Studio, Music, Acting, Fashion Design, Etiquette Courses, Resume Building Workshops, Anti-Bullying Classes, Mental Health/Stress Management, and beyond.
For the last 14 plus years, we have been relentless to go to the extremes to reach those in need regardless of zip code.
