Project Title: Exploradoor
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Exploradoor\u2019s mission is to simplify access and connection of Indiana youth from marginalized and low-income communities to career, job and skill development programs and experiences that prepare them for life after high school. Exploradoor consists of two related initiatives: (1) The compilation, management and ongoing curation of a free, internet-based platform called Exploradoor.com that aggregates teen programs and experiences, including jobs and internships, into one easy to use location that organizes opportunities by student interest categories. Users of the platform can easily find and directly connect to the program and opportunities they choose based on their eligibility and interests. This one-stop resource helps provide transparency and connection to students who otherwise would not know what opportunities are available and\/or where to look or how to get started. The second is the outreach initiatives via interns and staff to schools, community organizations, families and students to inform them about Exploradoor.com as a free resource and influence use of the platform throughout the year, especially during the school year, to access job shadows, college visits, career exploration programs and internships. Both parts of the Exploradoor program work in an integrated fashion to increase teen engagement and preparedness about career and life choices after high school, especially for teens who are left out of these opportunities due unawareness or lack of social capital. In 2023, Exploradoor.com was visited by over 30,000 unique visitors and made over 2800 referrals\/connections to featured programs.
\nDuring that same period, over 75% of our users connecting to programs were minority youth: 55% AA; 22% Hispanic; 10% Asian. Additionally, over 90% of our interns were minority and 70% were female and 30% male. Over the 23-24 school year, Exploradoor hired, trained and provided ongoing skills and motivational coaching to 30 high school interns and 5 college interns.\n<\/p>\n
