Program Description	The Powerhour Homework help program is designed by Boys & Girls Clubs of America and is offered in two places at our facility. For our members ages 7-12. We offer the program in our education room, and it is facilitated by Karen Espaillat. Karen, along with college and high school aged volunteers, work alongside our members to help them complete their homework and understand any materials they may not have understood in school. We also offer the program in our teen center for our high school ages members. This program is facilitated by Diana Regus, and is supported by adult volunteers and some college aged volunteers. Those who participate in this homework have opportunities to be recognized for their academic performance throughout the club, as well as receive invitations to quarterly parties at the club.
