One of the more popular ones is [[Artists Reaching Out]], a program focusing on art education for elementary school students around the city.
 '''Health and Environment Programs:''' These programs are all aimed at building the health of Columbia’s surrounding communities by providing education to youth and families and to eliminate the barriers to health imposed by poverty and marginalization. This is done in a variety of ways, from teaching classes on healthy living to middle schoolers to educating families on the availability of government benefits.
