After adding a second full-time staff member last fall, Youth For Christ in Altona is looking to expand its programs.

Marty Falk was hired as the drop-in director at The Station about a year ago, while assistant director Sheridan Sawatzky came on board in November.

Board Chair Henry Sawatzky says the pair have been working well together.

"They have big dreams," he said. "They brought to one of our meetings and said 'What if we build a newer building?'. This building that we have now is kind of small for certain things that they want to do...That's something that we're looking into."

Sawatzky notes the board has also been talking about operating a van service between Altona and Gretna that would allow youth in that community access programs in Altona.

Youth For Christ will be holding an open house at The Station drop-in centre in Altona on April 20th from 6 - 8pm.
