The Hub is a safe and fun space at our center for male youth to come together for recreational activities, is open Friday through Sunday from 6:00 pm – 10:00 pm. The Hub is supervised by trained male peer counselors and other UWEAST staff.

A partnership with the San Diego County Division of Behavioral Health Services, the Urban Beats program is an artistic transitional age youth program that utilizes self expressions and art to de-stigmatize mental health and social services.

UWEAST is currently implementing an actionable prevention plan to improve the well-being of East African boys and men, by simultaneously targeting the sociocultural, physical/built, economic, and educational environments, provided in part through The Hub.
