Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Impact evidence

Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.

Programs described in its return (1)
  1. $72,556 spent. THE PROGRAM IS A WEEK-LONG RESIDENTIAL ACCELERATED LEARNING PROGRAM SELF- IDENTITY FOR TEENS AGES 13-17. THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO ENHANCE TEENAGERS ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE AND SOCIAL PROFICIENCY, GIVING THEM TOOLS TO MAKE POSITIVE CHOICES. OUR CAMPERS LEARN SPECIFIC TECHNIQUES TO IMPROVE SKILLS, SUCH AS ACCELERATING NOTE-TAKING, MEMORY TRAINING, VISUALIZATION AND CREATIVE THINKING TECHNIQUES, AND SELF-MANAGEMENT METHODS. HOWEVER, THE MAJOR FORCE IN IMPROVING GRADES AND ACADEMIC ABILITY IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF POSITIVE AND CONSTRUCTIVE ATTITUDES ABOUT THEIR OWN CAPABILITIES.
