Academic Support
Academic enrichment and support provides innovative and creative group activities to build participants’ educational skills, motivation and engagement. Activities supplement, rather than replicate, school-day learning and may include learning strategies such as instruction embedded in the visual and expressive arts, self-directing learning, collaborative and group work, reading clubs, project based learning, and computer assisted instruction and community service projects. Support services are offered that enable young people to remain actively engaged in education and enjoy learning.
The educational component is specifically designed to assist and empower children to cope psychologically with the effects of having their parents imprisoned by allowing them a safe place to learn and interact with other children in similar situations. The program offers small group learning, tutoring and homework assistance supervised by New York City licensed teachers five days a week. Additional features include computer literacy and an emphasis on science, technology, mathematics and the arts; poetry, writing, art and drama.
