WELCOME!

The Bray Center, Inc. is the only neighborhood center in Racine which is an independent non-profit 501(c)3 social service agency and not a part of the city run community center system. Each has its place to be sure, but many assume that the Bray Center is controlled by the city. It is not, nor does it have access to the resources of the city for things like staffing and maintenance. Rather, the Bray Center pays a price for its autonomy by carrying its own responsibility to keep the doors open, employ staff and maintain the facility. The Bray Center is owned by the neighborhood, as per the articles of incorporation. It is governed by a volunteer board of directors made up of neighborhood leaders and young adults, not to mention held accountable by the youth and families who depend on the Bray Center every day for the programs and services provided. You are welcome, indeed encouraged to visit, even join in the effort.
