On the Road Collaborative is a non-profit youth empowerment organization that sets middle and high school youth on the road to college and career.
By the age of 12, children from low-income families have experienced a 6,000 hour learning gap compared to their peers due mostly to out-of-school factors, such as access to pre-school and after-school and summer learning programs. |
|
Our Solution
We close this learning gap by connecting low-income middle and high school youth to educational experiences and caring adults during the out-of-school hours.
You can learn more about how we empower young people to discover their passion, build confidence and fulfill their promise.
