The Mission of Patriots' Gateway Center is to provide a neighborhood community center offering life enriching opportunities for those who live, work, play and learn in the near southeast Rockford community and throughout the Rock River Valley, with an emphasis on youth.

Patriots' Gateway Center is serving people all kinds, children of all ages, teens, adults, seniors and people with disabilities, every race and religion, every income level, male and female alike.  As we seek to improve and expand out considerable array of programs for youth and adults, our basic goal remains constant.

"To have a powerful impact on lives"

COLLABORATION

Implies a structure by which organization representatives decide how to plan and act together. Collaboration implies a style of work in which agencies deliberately decide  to do things together as a whole, rather than individuals acting on their own initiative. Collaboration implies  a sense of community in which members begin to see themselves as  complementary, mutually supportive and contributive to the whole community and not as competitors.

OPERATION

• Patriots’ Gateway is a collaborative effort among leading community service agencies

• Each agency provides its own staff, materials and programs

• Each agency is responsible  for its own operation Funding
