Your investment strengthens and expands what is already working in Montgomery County.

Our college partners — led by Sinclair Community College — ensure that youth receive high‑quality training, career‑aligned skills, and stackable credentials that follow them long after high school.

This means donors are not just funding a program.

You are funding a pathway.

A pathway that leads to:

• College enrollment

• Workforce readiness

• Leadership development

• Long‑term stability

This is sustainable, scalable, and rooted in evidence‑based practice.

Training

Youth receive structured preparation in leadership, communication, trauma‑informed support, and academic tutoring.

Paid Experience

Through WIOA Youth, students earn $10–$15 per hour while serving as mentors and tutors in their own communities.

College & Career Pathways

Youth can transition into fields such as education, human services, social work, behavioral health, and early childhood education.

Donor Impact:  

Your support ensures that students are not forced to choose between earning income and gaining experience.

They can do both — safely, locally, and with purpose.

Many young people in Montgomery County face barriers that make traditional employment or college access difficult.

This pathway removes those barriers by providing:
