Coal Country Awarded Grants

The Coal Country Hangout Youth Center in North Cambria has been awarded two grants from the Jubilee Ministry program of the Episcopal Church.

The grants will allow the center to upgrade its computer lab – most youth in the area lack home computers — and to supplement staffing for diocesan youth activities in the eastern edge of the diocese.

Coal Country is a full-service youth center providing programs otherwise unavailable to approximately 6,000 youth in rural sections of Cambria, Indiana, and Clearfield Counties.

Congratulations to its director, the Rev. Ann Staples, and her staff.
