REACH (which stands for Resilience, Education, Adventure, Community, and Health) works with students to develop skills so they can take control of their lives as they transition from high school to college. Our application is open in the Fall of every year.
Fellows are accepted during their junior year in high school(ages 16-18 years old) and remain in the program for 2.5 years, through their first year of post-secondary education. During the school year, students participate in programming that focuses on skill-building opportunities for post-secondary education, career exploration, outdoor adventure education, personal development, food and financial literacy, and community involvement
- youth recreation and outdoor learning
- outdoor skills building and introduction
- college prep and transitionary support
- college tours
- financial literacy education
- financial aid and scholarship workshops
- cooking classes
- community involvement and volunteer opportunities
Once accepted into the program, fellows receive a scholarship for 2.5 years, making all events free of charge.
Reach is a non-profit youth outreach organization. Not a medical/clinical provider.
