Empowering Teens and Young Adults to Grow, Connect, and Achieve Their Goals
The COFA Program at Lincoln Square Neighborhood Center is designed for teenagers and young adults aged 14 to 26, with a particular focus on at-risk teens. As a pathways program, COFA is dedicated to assisting participants in reaching their goals, promoting socialization, and personal development. This is achieved through the cultivation of positive social connections and by offering opportunities for learning and growth, all while broadening their horizons through exposure to new activities.
COFA is open year-round in collaboration with the RISE Teen Program and NYCHA Teen Expansion Program. It runs Monday through Friday from 6 pm to 9 pm, and Saturdays, from 12 pm to 3:30 pm.
*These programs are free of charge.

- Social Activities
