A Legacy of Empowering Quincy Youth

Founded in 1987, QCARE has been a pillar of support for Quincy families by offering exceptional out-of-school care and enriching programs for school-aged children. Over the years, we have grown from a single program serving 13 children to a comprehensive network of nine school-based programs serving over 400 young minds.

Our Mission: Nurturing Potential and Building Confidence

QCARE's mission is to provide affordable, high-quality child care and enrichment services. We achieve this through:

• Compassionate Care: Our nurturing staff build positive relationships with each child, offering individualized attention and support.
• Creative Activities: From arts and crafts to drama and music, our programs cultivate young imaginations and foster a love for exploration.
• Academic Support: We provide a safe space for homework assistance and guidance to enhance academic performance.
• Social & Emotional Growth: We encourage team building, conflict resolution, and emotional awareness to foster well-rounded young citizens.

Empowering Diverse Needs

Our diverse programs cater to the unique needs of every child. Year-round options include:

• School Day Programs: After school care and homework support at nine Quincy elementary schools.
• Vacation Programs: Engaging activities and excursions during February and April school vacations.
• Summer Program: A comprehensive summer camp offering arts, sports, and educational excursions.
