BUILDING A PATHWAY
FROM CRADLE TO COLLEGE TO CAREER

Our mission is to end generational poverty through a dual generation

approach to education and family empowerment!

​

We do this by coaching students and parents along their pathway to success, supporting their goals, and offering resources to meet each person and family's unique needs.
