Welcome to The City of Peace Community Learning Center.
Here, at the City of Peace Community Learning Center, young women who have dropped out of school due to early pregnancy, poverty, or sexual violence are given a second chance through a holistic and dignified approach.
We make this possible by removing the barriers that often keep young mothers from returning to school. While they study and access learning resources, their children are cared for in our on-site daycare by trained child development professionals.
Meals are provided during class hours to support focus and well-being, and our educators meet each learner with patience and respect, ensuring no one is left behind.
This integrated model allows young women to heal, learn, and grow—while gaining the tools to advocate for themselves and build independent, stable futures.
