Services include quality academically-oriented before and after school programs, homework assistance, enrichment, one-on-one tutoring, small group tutoring, weekend and vacation learning instruction, childcare, early literacy and language instruction, educational and sports travel programs, and much more. Each day, our carefully chosen staff of 300 along with hundreds of volunteers serves around 8,000 at-risk and low-income students at more than 30 sites across Southern California.
