Facilities include two indoor gyms, performing arts center, screen printing shop, industrial kitchen, soccer field, classrooms, literacy center, garden area, media production center and outdoor playground.
Kimmel Resource Center
Our literacy center is more than a library. We help adults, as well as children, learn to read and understand English as a second language.
Screen Printing Shop
Kids Unlimited has a professional garment screen printing shop on campus. Besides printing our own uniforms and swag, we provide professional printing services to the public, and the profits go back into the KU program.

Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts
Kids Unlimited’s earliest endeavors to raise funds for our programs were through community concerts, and the tradition continues today with our state-of-the-art Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts.
Media Production Center
With state-of-the-art digital equipment, the Media Production Center is home to “KUA-TV,” a student-run weekly news show. Students learn audio and video production under the instruction of Gemineye, a former longtime Southern Oregon radio personality and current professional DJ. His DJing classes incorporate music creation and remixing, as well as audio podcasts with one to four participants. Video production has live-stream capability. Green-screen technology and professional software for digital editing enhance students’ learning experience and project outcomes.
