STUDY AND GROW

The Programa Estudia y Crece (PEC) are evening centers that impact low-income students in grades K-6 Monday through Friday. Our programming supports holistic development through tutoring, extracurricular, sports and community service activities, and emotional health programs that foster self-esteem, resilience and collective consciousness. Our centers in Vietnam and Puente Blanco continued to operate throughout the pandemic. Our students at the Juana Matos center were served at the two main centers.

UNIVERSITY COURSE

They are offered academic support, workshops and guidance on examination processes and college applications, family support and guidance, and individual and group interventions with counselors.
