College Access Programming:
Rising Leaders Program (RLP) provides middle school students (7th-8th) with monthly workshops to spark early thinking about high school, college, and future goals. Our workshops are open to any middle school student across the Valley and are held at the Roosevelt School District Neighborhood House.
College Bound Leaders (CBL) provides high school students (9th-11th) with monthly workshops aimed at helping them embark on a college-going path. Our workshops are open to any high school student across the Valley and are held at Phoenix College - Hacienda Room.
College Success Programming:
Senior Boot Camp (SBC) provides critical and timely support, encouragement and guidance to high school seniors as they continue to shape and plan their college going experience. Through a year-long series of workshops, along with consistent guidance, mentoring and support, students are best able to navigate the often-daunting college and scholarship application process. This extensive curriculum ensures that each of the seniors receives personal help and support with the process of applying to gain acceptance into colleges and the financial aid application process.
