Activity 3

Career and College Initiative: The purpose of the Career and College Initiative is to ensure that all Minneapolis Public high school students successfully plan for their futures. The program includes Career and College Centers located in each high school with coordinators/counselors who work to provide tools, guidance, facilitation and access to external resources that enable students to plan for post-secondary success. The project works with an extensive network of business and professional volunteers who provide direct service to young people. The project is funded primarily by private sources, as well as a contract with the Minneapolis Public schools.
