ABOUT

Our Facilities

In December 1999, The Brotherhood/Sister Sol made an exciting step forward and purchased a brownstone in West Harlem. The building became the heart of our organization and a sanctuary from the streets for members.

• Our state-of-the-art technology center is used for tutoring and instructing our members in academic subjects and computer and digital video technology. In addition, the Technology Center is an ideal environment for members to do school work.
• Our library is filled with volumes about Black and Latino literature and history, science fiction and fantasy, poetry, biography, and a range of reference materials.
• The Club House includes a TV/Video Lounge used for viewing educational films and videos and for recreational "Movie Nights." The game room is stocked with dozens of board and video games for when our members want to chill out and relax.
• The Mind, Body & Spirit Room is where we conduct activities intended to bring out the essential connection between one's strength, creativity and critical thinking skills, and overall well-being. Whether the activity is yoga, arts and crafts, or percussion, we help youth identify and learn to draw on their natural and unique strengths and talents.
• Our kitchen allows us to offer healthy snacks, and on special occasions, full meals, to our members and staff. It is also used to teach nutrition and survival cooking classes.
• Our backyard garden adjoins a city-owned GreenThumb garden, and both are landscaped and maintained by our members and staff.
