The Steps

Through direct partnerships community residents will have an opportunity to work with leaders and professionals throughout the year who will provide mentorship in leadership, opportunities to participate in civic engagement, career training, academics, peer support and health/wellness and fitness activities.  

 

 

Why we‘re doing it

As positive adult engagement increases, our strategies instill in students the self-confidence and motivation to stay in school, graduate from high school and pursue post-high school education, career training and/or employment.  The fundraising model provides sustainable resources to support the scalability of strategy.
