Central Detroit Christian exists to empower people and create positive opportunities in the central Detroit Community. We do this through Education, Employment & Economic Development.
Teens (6th – 12th grade)
Teen Club
HIGH SCHOOL provides students with a safe, fun and comfortable place to hang out, meet friends, and hear about Jesus. The club is named after Jesus’ words in John 7:37: “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.” We also offer weekend retreats, service projects, mentoring and college and career planning.
Meets: Friday, 5:30pm-7:30pm For students in 10th-12th Grade

The READY Program
The READY (Recruit, Employ, Advance, and Deploy Youth) education and employment program partners with GDYT (Grow Detroit Youth Talent) to employ 175 students and young adults each summer. It places students from our community in rigorous work experiences, while providing professional development in resume building, career mapping, and leadership development. Students who complete our program earn a competitive summer wage, and build valuable experience to take with them into the workforce.
