BUILDING the future

Second Chances Leadership Program was designed to build and develop the self-confidence, life and leadership skills of youth through interactive learning, in-class discussions, presentations, panels, workshops, and exploratory field-trips. Upon conclusion, participants will be able to demonstrate their understanding and knowledge of a leader’s core essentials through a service learning project, weekly homework and journaling assignments, discussions, presentations, and a culmination project. The program consists of 5 modules pertaining to:

  • Education/College Access
  • Financial Literacy
  • Leadership (includes Civic and Service Learning (Volunteering)
  • Social Justice/Advocacy
  • Health

Once our youth graduate from our Leadership Program they become Ambassadors helping other youth in our programs develop their leadership skills. They also help with recruitment, community events and take on leadership roles within our organization. SCLP youth continue to build their leadership skills which includes becoming well versed in the theoretical and practical application of a leader’s core essentials. This allows them to personally develop through leadership programs and have access to tools and resources that not only helps our youth to apply to college but also prepares them to succeed in life.

A WORD FROM

SCLP SCHOLARS

Unlike most college access programs, not only does the SCLP support scholars through their transition from high school to college, but also extends support of scholars for an additional four years to increase the odds of them completing college. The SCLP enjoys a one-hundred percent high school graduation rate amongst cohort members and is proven to increase scholars educational aspirations and remove barriers that would otherwise prevent them from enrolling in college.
