OUTREACH

A non-profit organization that provides child care, adult day care and adult education and human development services to the financially, socially and spiritually stressed families in the Tioga section of Philadelphia.

Please complete this permission form for your child to have the ability to participate in the Mercy Neighborhood after school program. 7th and 8th graders have the opportunity to prepare for and lead and arts and crafts activity during an after school program at Mercy Neighborhood Ministries on Wednesday afternoons. Students spend one week deciding on and preparing for an activity. The following week, they visit Mercy Neighborhood and lead this project. Faculty drive WMA students and they return around 5pm. Given seasonal commitments, it is no problem if students can't participate throughout the year
