Our Strategies and Outcomes

We partner with local middle schools and high schools, community and senior colleges, and religious organizations. Our effectiveness is measured through the success and the experiences of our youths. We achieve this through the following programs:

  1. Youth for Tech Program (YTP): to ensure equity for every youth, this program is designed to increase technology and STEM education opportunities for every youth. Our young people are exposed to a meaningful learning experience and hands-on opportunities through our offered courses, ranging from coding, programming, video games design, cartoon creators, multimedia, cloud computing, networking, and virtualization.
  2. Creativity, Innovation, and Design Thinking Program (CIDTP): a strategic approach designed to engage every youth in divergent and convergent thinking, aiming to inspire innovations and creativity.
  3. The Making of Youth Leaders Program (MYLP): a practical and evidence-based approach to teaching leadership principles and ethical standards for today’s youth.
  4. Social, Emotional, and Mental Health Program (SEMHP): a sound social, emotional, and mental health is essential to healthy families, schools, organizations, and communities. This program is designed to address the social-emotional issues and trauma many young people face in diverse areas of their lives.
  5. Home Community Connection (HCC): a comprehensive approach to building home- community relationships designed to engage community leaders, faith-based organizations, and the business sector in a collaborative and coordinated approach to increase students’ academic achievement.
