Located in the historic Mount Vernon area in near east Columbus, the Community Extension Center provides community outreach and education programs designed to enhance the educational opportunities of students and improve the quality of life for children, teens, adults and senior citizens who live and work in the neighborhoods near and around the center and Columbus’ urban communities.
