Achievers gives 185 disadvantaged youth each year the opportunity to engage in career and college exploration opportunities, academic skill building and leadership activities. The program ultimately increases student participation in school programs, decreases school absenteeism and dropout rates and prevents delinquent behavior. Youth in the program typically have one or more of the following characteristics: household income below poverty level, homelessness, unaccompanied minors, low grades, truancy, referrals or suspensions. These characteristics place youth at risk of, educational failure or becoming involved in<br \/>\ndelinquent activities. Achievers has proven through over 30 years of collecting data to increase graduation rates, improve leadership skills and motivation, and prepare youth affected by poverty for college and the workforce. Achievers participants become future engaged citizens, successful college graduates, and leaders in our community who pass on the legacy of success to future generations.<\/p>\n<p>SCC offers scholarship opportunities to Achievers youth as they transition from high school to college.<br \/>\nThese scholarships support Achievers post secondary schooling, which enables them to further their education and prepare them for higher wage careers. Many Achievers are the first in their families to go to college, giving them the motivation and opportunity to succeed after high school which helps to break the cycle of generational poverty. To receive a scholarship, youth are required to actively<br \/>\nparticipate in the Achievers program at monthly Career and College Readiness workshops, Achievers<br \/>\nschool meetings, Financial Aid and Financial Literacy Workshops, and various Community Service events throughout the year.<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: $103,494<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): Committed: Sarasota County, Bank of America Client, Potential: <\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: <br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: <br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: <\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): <br \/>\nContact First Name: <br \/>\nContact Last Name: <br \/>\nContact Title: <br \/>\nContact Phone: <br \/>\nContact Email: <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: Safe Children Coalition Legal Name (if Different): Safe Children Coalition, Inc.
