The Waccamaw Youth Center is the first and only low management home serving up to 20 boys ages 12-21 who have been abused, abandoned, and/or neglected and are in the custody of the Department of Social Services due to no fault of their own.

The seasons are changing and Waccamaw Youth Center is gearing up for the holidays!? It is that special time of year when?WYC?strives to brighten the spirits of the boys who call the Center home.? Every child dreams of being with family and friends on holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas.?
