Futures First Program

Futures First: College & Career Pathways

Program Overview

This program provides comprehensive academic support, mentorship, and enrichment activities to 150 high school students, helping them achieve academic success and prepare for college and careers.

Impact-Focused Summary

Over three years, this initiative will serve 450 youth, increasing high school graduation rates by 25% and college enrollment by 40% through intensive academic support, personalized mentoring, and family engagement.

Equity Framework

We define equity as ensuring all youth have access to the resources and support needed to succeed, regardless of background. We measure equity by tracking participation rates across demographics and ensuring outcomes are consistent across all groups.

Data-Driven Equity Approach

Equity means intentionally removing barriers and providing differentiated support so that all youth can achieve their potential. We measure equity by comparing outcomes across racial and economic groups and adjusting programming when gaps emerge.

Key Performance Indicators

We track attendance rates, GPA improvements, high school graduation rates, college enrollment, and program satisfaction scores to measure our impact.

Outcome Measurement Framework

Our evaluation framework measures short-term outputs (attendance, engagement), medium-term outcomes (academic improvement, skill development), and long-term impacts (graduation, college success, career readiness).
