The Inspiration Center at Howell Park

This state-of-the-art, multi-use facility is dedicated to uplifting the North Baton Rouge community, thanks to the Baton Rouge Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Foundation. Once completed, it will be operated by the Boys and Girls Club of Metro Louisiana, offering programs focused on technology, education, athletics, and mentorship to inspire young minds and provide family support.
This community faces significant challenges, with 42.8% of residents living at or below the poverty line (U.S. Economic Development Administration). The Inspiration Center is a game-changer, filling critical gaps for local youth, offering wraparound services, and addressing the root causes of violent crime.
The project is utilizing a combination of HUD and ARPA funding.
