In-School Programs are designed to assist high school seniors in transitioning from high school to employment, college, advanced training, or the military.

 

Out-of-School Programs are designed to assist youth ages 16-21 who are high school dropouts in obtaining their GED. If the youth has their diploma/GED upon entry into the program or once the youth receives their GED, the program will assist the youth in transitioning to employment, college, advanced training, or the military.
