At-Risk Students

Children need more than food to grow into successful and caring adults.  They need someone to believe in them, someone to challenge them to do their best and caring adults who lead the way toward a bright future. Studies have found that a child’s ability to learn is negatively affected by family stress; particularly stress resulting from poverty and unemployment. In the communities that we serve, we see countless families under stress from a variety of issues and their children are feeling the strain.

The Solution

We deliver community-based counseling, family support and educational programs to children and their families in order to promote self-sufficiency and foster positive outcomes.  Our educational programs, after-school, summer camp and tutoring programs help each child develop skills necessary to become successful, self-supporting adults. We belive in the promise of education as an antidote to poverty and the genesis of a bright future. That’s why we invest in educational and literacy programs, family support and counseling that help at-risk students realize their full potential.
