What families say
“Being a part of College Track, having that support, and then being able to hold that role for incoming freshmen made me realize I love helping people. I love helping people in the ways that I was helped, because transitions can be hard to navigate.” — Mia, College Track Alumna (San Francisco)
“College Track became a safe space for me. Every day I showed up, I knew I was investing in my future in some way.” — Leanna J., College Thrive Scholar, Bowie State University
“Through College Track, I have met many new people and gained lessons I wouldn’t have gotten if I hadn’t joined the program. Creating an app earlier this year introduced me to a whole new experience that even made me interested in coding. I’m grateful that this program is introducing me to things that were outside of my comfort zone before.” — Maysa, College Track Scholar Crenshaw
