Our neighborhood drop-in center is open to any child between the ages of 6 and 16. Parents or guardians must fill out an application form and submit that with an annual fee of $20 for their child/teens membership annual fee. For that, children and teens, aged 6-16. are entitled to take part in all of the activities and programs of the drop-in program.
Our Latchkey Program began originally in 1986 and funding is granted through the State of Massachusetts Voucher Management Program locally directed by P.A.C.E. Inc. To inquire about eligibility for school age day care slots in our program, you may contact P.A.C.E. at (508) 999-9930. Referrals are made from P.A.C.E. to Dennison and then the parent should contact, Joseph Neves, Program Director, at our center, (508) 996-2691. This is a licensed school age day care program through the State of Massachusetts, Office of Early Education and Child Care. The license is renewable every two years and there are stringent requirements for renewal.

Programs are geared towards age appropriate activities and include both educational and recreational activities.
