Proudly Serving the Phoenix Community
For More Than 40 Years
Community Educational Services (CES) is a Phoenix, AZ- based non profit organization who serves underserved youth and under resourced families through offering programs aimed and strengthening youth’s educational performance and personal development skills.
“Our goal is to ensure the youth of today are equipped with the skills needed to thrive in the world of tomorrow. Underserved populations, in particular, are less likely to have access to the resources necessary for that to happen. Bridging that gap is where we come in.”
– Dr. Karen Hardin, CES Founder
