S.A.Y. Yes! Centers for Youth Development are after school mentoring ministries that focus on the whole child. They are committed to helping young people develop a dynamic, life-long relationship with Jesus Christ, and to become all that He created them to be.

In many inner-city neighborhoods, Christians are feeling a need to open the doors of their churches during the after school hours, and minister to children and teens during the hours when many are unsupervised and vulnerable to getting into trouble.

This is where Here's Life Inner City's strategic community development program, S.A.Y. Yes! for Youth Development comes in.  HLIC staff train church and ministry leaders to design and open their own S.A.Y. Yes! Center.  After the Center is open, our staff coach and resource Center directors as they make a long term investment in the lives of children and youth in their community. 

One S.A.Y. Yes! Director said that Here's Life Inner City's S.A.Y. Yes! training saved his church two years of research to create their own after school ministry.
