Message By Executive Director

"I’ve been in and out of Juvenile Hall and Campo.  I have been kickin’ it with the neighborhood. A lot of people just gave up on me, so I thought I would keep rollin’ like this.”

That’s what many tell me when they first arrive at Community Youth Athletic Center. Now with the positive changes in their lives, they can’t stop sharing to family, friends and supporters the great things happening at our “House of Respect.”

For many of San Diego’s at-risk youth, the path to a more positive lifestyle could feel like a long and impossible maze.  These young people need encouragement, support, and guidance to escape the danger that awaits them on the streets and ultimately becoming positive and contributing members of society. Each year CYAC provides just that.

Success stories could not exist with out supporters like you.  As CYAC goes into its third decade, it has become much more than a boxing program.  It has become a youth center providing hope and improving the quality of life for hundreds of San Diego’s at-risk youth.  So come alongside of us and be a part of the “making a difference one round at a time” philosophy.

Carlos Barragan
Executive Director

Welcome

Welcome to the Community Youth Athletic Center’s Website. Since the beginning, CYAC has strived to fulfill its mission,

“Providing San Diego’s at-risk youth with a constructive alternative to self-defeating behavior through an athletic, academic and community service program.” 


Founded in 1991, from its humble beginning of a backyard gym with a punching bag, an old pair of gloves and a homemade boxing ring, Community Youth Athletic Center has grown into an organization that has continued achieving significant change in improving the lives of many of San Diego’s youth, that have been touched by our “making a difference, one round at a time” philosophy.


Our youth center provides diverse activities that meet the needs our city’s youth. Programs engage young people in activities with adults and peers that enable them to grow and reach their full potential. So take a tour of our website and see for yourself the great things happening at Community Youth Athletic Center.
