What makes us different:

Every school is different and has different needs and concerns regarding it’s students. We work collaboratively with the schools to customize a program that meets those needs so that help goes where it will make the most difference.
We approach our work with a youth development mindset. We believe every student is an “At Potential Youth” and our goal is to grow that potential.
We aren’t just focused on educational skills but also interpersonal ones. Our programs include opportunities for youth to learn conflict resolution, anger management, and new decision-making techniques.
Students are given as many opportunities for success as we can provide. Many of our programs offer paid internships that provide the students with an experiential learning environment.
Our undivided attention and commitment to our students and their families.
