We have been a non-profit with a 50l(C)3 as of August 22, 2003. We have several programs in place, i.e. Out of school Youth ages 16-21 with completing high school diplomas, GEDS, and entering college, the military or occupational training. One hundred percent (100%) program youth are documented as low income and each youth has been identified as having additional barriers. These barriers include but are not limited to demonstrated academic deficiency, pregnant or parenting youth, homeless youth adjuicated youth and youth who have serious language limitations that act as impediments to their success. Our program provides intensive one on one case management, work readiness, leadership training and supportive services.
