The Franklin Youth Center proudly presents our award-winning Impact Video featuring youth center staff and members!  This special feature is a result of a collaboration between the Youth Center, key stakeholders and community partner, “Sounds of Tomorrow”. The video highlights the positive culture and unique program offerings of the center while also showcasing the caring staff who ensure youth members reach their fullest potential. Given the compelling content, the video was recognized by the New Jersey Recreation and Parks Association (NJRPA) with their Agency Showcase Award for Video Production. The award was received by Youth Center staff at the NJRPA 50th Annual Conference Awards Dinner Gala.

The Franklin Township Youth Center is located at 429 Lewis Street, Somerset, NJ, and provides a safe space, programs, and engaging activities for Franklin students from grades six to twelve. Membership is FREE and parents can obtain more information by contacting center staff at (732)873-7292.
