Abstract

This project attempts to improve the awareness of our program, Improve Your Tomorrow, to more schools, communities and parents. With Improve Your Tomorrow, we work to enhance the chances of young men of color of getting into college and furthering their education. The program addresses the systemic barriers and opportunity gaps that often limit educational access for underrepresented groups particularly in underserved communities. By promoting IYT’s mission and services more broadly, this project seeks to build stronger partnerships with local schools, engage parents and guardians, and connect with community leaders who can help guide students toward success. Through survey's and school presentations the goal is to ensure that more young men of color are aware of and can benefit from the life-changing opportunities offered by IYT. Ultimately, this effort supports the larger vision of educational equity, college access, and the empowerment of future leaders.
