Welcoming KidWorks back to the Bishop Manor neighborhood of Santa Ana!
1001 E Bishop Street Santa Ana, CA 92701
KidWorks is partnering with the Bishop Manor neighborhood to relaunch a community program this fall that provides after school tutoring, college prep workshops, leadership classes for parents, and more.
Status Update:
KidWorks Bishop Manor (KBM) has undergone renovations so that your children can have a safe and clean space to hang out! We are excited to announce that the construction project is now complete and we are opening KBM doors to the community in early November for after school programs! Register your child today!
Our grand opening is dedicated to the families in the community who have patiently awaited the return of KidWorks—a place that supports their children both personally and academically. This event is a celebration of their unwavering support, which has been instrumental in reopening KidWorks at Bishop Manor. It will also be an evening of celebration, with raffles and fun games for all ages to enjoy.
Revamped Center, New Playground
In July 2025, the Bishop Manor community celebrated the completion of a brand, new playground in their complex. The ribbon cutting ceremony featured a beautiful mural, a tour of the new playground, and a few words from Robert Alcaras, the Board President of Bishop Manor HOA, who has worked tirelessly to bring KidWorks back to Bishop Manor. The playground will be a source of joy and belonging for the new center.

Meet the Site Supervisor
Eva Ochoa
My name is Eva Ochoa. I first joined KidWorks in 2011 as a student when I began high school. KidWorks played a pivotal role in helping me believe in myself and instilled in me the determination to succeed, no matter the circumstances. My college journey was not always easy—it was a true roller coaster—but with perseverance, I was able to graduate with my bachelor’s degree in educational studies from Grand Canyon University. I am excited about the reopening of KidWorks at Bishop Manor because it represents an opportunity to provide students and the community with the tools they need to thrive. What excites me even more is that I am returning to KidWorks as a Site Supervisor, where I can now help other children believe in themselves, just as KidWorks once helped me.

About Our Programs
All learning takes place in a safe, fun, and high quality program that fits the needs of both you and your child.
When a child believes in themself, a world of possibilities unfolds. Students develop the character, confidence, and tools to reach one’s God-given potential.
Relationally Based
Life transformation happens in relationship. Students develop safe bonds with staff, mentors, and volunteers.
Leadership Driven
Every child is a leader. Using Franklin Covey’s “Leader in Me” curriculum, students develop the knowledge, compassion, and skills to discover their personal leadership strengths and in turn give back to the community.
Academic & Personal Enrichment
Homework help and individualized tutoring ensure students stay on track academically. KidWorks workshops and field trips enable students to discover their own passions and talents in the fields of art, dance, sports, STEM, and more!
