Our programming currently serves over 200 youth and families who are predominantly African American (92%) and reside in underserved communities. Utilizing a holistic andyouth-centered approach to meeting the individual needs of youth and families, we collaborate/partner with other community organizations and businesses. Our structural programming also includes meals, fitness opportunities in the onsite gym, and a dedicated computer andtraining lab. Our Project Inspire program activities address education, mental health, social support, and life-skill development. We conduct youth and teen outreach activities to keep students on track, provide an opportunity for them to give feedback in program plans and create a sense of belonging. Project Inspire builds community and cooperative learning, with time for reflection through journaling, as well as leadership opportunities with peers within a multi-faceted safe space. Meaningful activities, intentional learning objectives, skill-building and critical thinking skills are equitably incorporated inthe following areas: math, reading comprehension, writing, homework help, career specific activities,family empowerment, problem-solving, current events, community involvement, self-care, personal reflection, communication, healthy relationships, etc. Parents must be an active supporter in our work and sign off on their child’s participation, as well as devote volunteer time to our program. Our Nehemiah Program assists returning citizens integrate back into their family and community and show them a path forward alongside their children and family members that make up their household.
