About “The Center”
The Central Allison Hill Community Center is now under the ownership and maintenance of TLC Work-Based Training Program, Inc. TLC Work-Based Training Program, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, headquartered in Harrisburg, PA, that provides training and workforce development services to hard-to-place individuals.

Culinary Arts for Youth
We invite you to join in our hands-on cooking classes where you can learn the techniques of professional chefs! Classes are aimed at all skill levels, empowering our students by teaching techniques as opposed to being tied to a recipe. Kids and teens classes for ages 8-17, couples cooking classes, and multi-week kitchen techniques series.
Community Garden
Gardening offers the opportunity for childhood discovery, learning and experience through doing. As children participate community garden activities, they are contributing to their development in many ways that will benefit them now and later. They are also building the skills that can prepare them for exciting and rewarding careers in their future
