Discover the Possibilities for Your Child

Find youth programs that provide experiences outside of traditional school time to help nurture curiosity and support learning and health – all while they have fun!

Portland Youth continually compiles information from a variety of programs in the Greater Portland area for youth of all ages – from toddlers through teenagers. Several of our partners provide scholarships and free or reduced-fee programs, so that every child can have the opportunity to explore their interests and thrive!

Whether you are looking for before- and after-school programs, summer and vacation camps, family events, online programs, clubs, or other enrichment opportunities throughout the year, we hope this is a helpful first step in finding a program that is right for your child.
