Through a partnership with the Child Abuse Prevention Center, our AmeriCorps program provides services to youth in our community. AmeriCorps members participate in an extensive training program that prepares them to mentor and help youth develop necessary skills for a successful transition into adulthood. Successfully completing each year of high school year followed by high school graduation are the initial goals. Long term goals are for each student to be a productive and self sufficient member of our community. Members keep these goals in mind as they help each youth develop life skills, academic strength, financial literacy, and transition planning.
Our team is trained to help in a few subject areas such as:
Academic Advising
College & Career Planning
Communication
Daily Living
FAFSA, Chafee, CADA, and College Application Assistance
Field Trips
Job Searches/Resume Building
Leadership Development
Money management
Mock interviews
Self care
Social Relationships
And much more!
