CHANCES

CHANCES is an intervention program for pregnant students from Boston Public Schools that provides academic classes, as well as intensive case management, one-on-one academic support, and classes to prepare students to become successful parents. Students receive transportation to and from school, and free breakfast and lunch. While in the program, participants are referred to community organizations that will support them throughout their pregnancy and into their child's first years. Students are expected to return to their original school six weeks after they give birth. However, each student's case manager continues with follow-up services for six months to ensure a successful transition to motherhood and back to school.

Youth GED Program

The Youth GED Program is an alternative to a traditional school setting that provides students with the intensive and supportive services they need to succeed. The holistic approach of the program treats each student as an individual and a whole person, focusing equally on academics, support, and preparation for the future, as well as by celebrating the successes of the students.
