About Us

Who are we?

Saucon Valley Community Center (SVCC) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that has served the borough of Hellertown, PA and the surrounding municipalities since 1971. For over 50 years, we have worked to provide a number of programs and services to meet the needs of our community.  

Our Mission

The Saucon Valley Community Center is a not for profit organization whose mission is to identify the needs of the community and to service those needs through social and educational programs. 

Licenses

  • SVCC is licensed in Pennsylvania to provide childcare services to children as young as 18 months old. 
  • Our facility is in compliance with all of the facility and staffing requirements mandated by the State of Pennsylvania. 
  • Our childcare programs are recognized by the prestigious Keystone STARS initiative, a continuous quality improvement program that is part of the Early Learning Keys to Quality initiative. This initiative was developed by the Office of Child Development and Early Learning to ensure that all Pennsylvania families have access to high-quality early childhood education and school age opportunities that foster children’s success in school and life.
