We help students prepare for their future
Our programs are both longstanding in evidence and responsive to accommodate the shifting needs of our community. We prioritize programs that benefit students overcoming obstacles by addressing key barriers, increasing postsecondary readiness among our students, and closing opportunity gaps.
It [Young Ameritowne] made the learning real to them, they were able to see how they were able to apply their new skills in a way that connects with their future and with what is reality for adults. I also think this helped with team building and encouraged students to communicate with others and work with others who they might not always get to work with at school.
