The Chester Addison Community Center is a vibrant, comprehensive community center serving the social, emotional, educational, and health needs of Stamford’s Waterside residents. The center is situated in Southwood Square, the neighborhood’s mixed income housing development. Its 315 households are home to over 200 children.
To help every resident reach his full potential, we seek to provide programming in the following areas: Education, Physical/Mental Health, Recreation, Technology, Financial Literacy, Arts/Hobbies, Employment Skills, Community Service, Mentoring, and Life Skills.
The center currently serves over 150 children aged five through 13 through an after-school program that operates Monday through Friday from 2pm to 6pm. The center also offers less structured programming for older youth and adults. Our computer lab is open to any CACC member for email access, Internet research, and word processing.
