One-to-one mentoring: instilling the confidence to succeed, the belief that education creates opportunity, and setting the expectation for success. Tutoring and academic support: increasing academic performance and building confidence. Family assistance & parent engagement: ensuring children have a supportive home life, and that parents have access to the services they need. Out-of-school enrichment & service learning: strengthening the resiliency of children to succeed in life.
