The CAMBA Education Center offers morning, afternoon, and evening classes to low-income individuals who are at least 16 years old, who are not enrolled or required to be enrolled in the New York City Public School system, and who live in the Flatbush and East Flatbush communities of Brooklyn, New York. The Education Center serves eligible individuals who need to improve their reading, writing, and math skills, as well as immigrants and speakers of other languages who need to develop or enhance their listening, speaking, reading, writing, and numeracy skills in English. Additionally, the Education Center welcomes individuals who need to acquire or develop the digital skills they need to better perform various personal, family, and employment tasks. Each year, over 1,000 U.S.-born citizens and immigrants from the Caribbean, Latin America, Eastern Europe, Asia, and Africa attend Computer/Digital Literacy, English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL), Integrated English Literacy and Civics Education (IELCE)/English to Work (ETW), or High School Equivalency classes at the CAMBA Education Center.
Case Managers at the Education Center help students develop an Education & Employment Plan. They, then, help them get the necessary assistance to meet pressing socio-economic needs (such as housing, childcare, and legal services) or to reach their goals by referring them to programs offered at CAMBA or by several other partnering agencies in the city.
