Adolescent Program

While the Achievers are in our program for 12 years, we transition them through two different programs: the Child and the Adolescent Programs.

The Adolescent Program furthers the work of the Child Program, the fundamental building block of our early intervention strategy.  However, the one-on-one focus of the Child Program is replaced with more peer group involvement appropriate to the developmental needs of teens.  Adolescent programming focuses on experiential activities with the aim of improving the Achievers’ academic, emotional, and social health.  The Friend remains available for one-on-one support when needed.
