SAGE
Crystal Stairs' Nickerson Gardens SAGE Center is located
in the heart of Watts. SAGE was formed in 1994 to
provide low-income families from the Nickerson Gardens
Housing Project Community with a safe and stimulating
place to leave their children while they work or train to find work. SAGE received
national accreditation in 2004 and is the only
nationally accredited program of its kind in Los
Angeles. Accreditation is the highest recognized measure
of program quality. SAGE is a quality program, located
in one of the most critical neighborhoods in our
community. The children of SAGE are wonderful, eager to
learn and deserve every access to success that a child
outside of Nickerson Gardens deserves.
