The Youth Centre is an extra-school institution which for almost 50 years has worked for children and youth. Based on the good traditions, long time experiance and a lot of ideas, we are still present in Cracow inhabitants awareness. Main residence of the Youth Centre is an estate at Krowoderska 8, built for Polish YMCA in 1926. Now, both institutions YMCA and Jordan Youth Centre work in the same building.

Since September 1996 we have run newly restored bouliding at Krowoderska 17. This place became a main residence of the XXVII High School and modern conference hall. Programme of the school is conected with international exchange . The school regulary co-operate with schools in France, Germany and develops contacts with the schools in Lviv, Vilnius and Grodno. At the same time Youth Information Centre and Youth Association of Science and Art Amateurs moved to new residence at Basztowa 5.

Although Youth Centre continues the best tradition of its ancestors, it has also managed on the bases of many years of experience to create its own programme which includes both typical forms of activities and the ones specific only to this institution addressed to its participants aged 5-21 years.
