Activities include sports, athletic, and fitness activities, crafts, preschool programs, New Directions High School Diploma completion classes, computer classes, tours, youth activities, youth at risk programs, and seasonal events.

The Center also serves as a community meeting hall, hosting the Oakland Neighborhood Improvement Association and other groups, and can be rented for private functions such as birthday parties, wedding receptions, etc. The Center also houses a Community Police Officer and a satellite clinic of the Shawnee County Health Agency.
