Our Program

Our program targets students who have attitude and behavioral problems in and out of the classroom. The 1+1=U program assists young men and women with self development and self actualization. Our young women, who we call U Girls and our young men, who we call U Guys, will participate in Saturday activities geared towards boosting academic and personal goals. Each student participating in the 1 + 1 = U program must sign an agreement to strive toward their best work, develop a list of personal goals and work hard to achieve each of them.

The Goals

Each student entering the program has a set of personal goals he or she strives to achieve. Mentors work closely with each student to ensure he or she is working toward person goals and rewards for achieving those goals will be the receipt of the charm bracelet. Also, the 1 + 1 = U program plans to take student shopping in New York for a weekend to reward them for reaching a personal goal they set out to achieve. This, we believe, will show students that there are rewards for sticking with an objective and achieving that function. Those students who do not reach their goals will not be permitted to travel. After a student has completed the 1+1=U program, the following results should be achieved:

• Student has successfully increased verbal and written communication skills
• Student has successfully increased ACT or SAT test scores in preparation for college
• Student has enrolled in a military academy, reform school or college
• Students with learning disabilities are successfully identified and guided towards success
• Students in program are aligned with mentors who are in positions to offer jobs upon completion of school
• Parents of home-schooled students are well-prepared to make educated decisions regarding their children's future
• Students who leave our program are now equipped to make a positive difference in the world, using the principles taught through the 1+1=U program
