ReRoute

ReRoute’s mission is to help our Latinx youth who are between the ages of 11-17 and who are starting to show academic and behavioral issues. We help them navigate through their challenges. Some examples are:

ACADEMIC

  • Underachievement
  • Failing grades
  • Missing Assignments
  • Attendance
  • Suspension or expelled

BEHAVIOUR

  • Signs of gang affiliation
  • Alcohol/drug use
  • Behavioral problems
  • Criminal justice involvement
  • Family Conflict
  • Lack of Personal/Social

HOW REROUTE WORKS:

We enroll up to 15 youth into each cohort group

Cohorts last 12-15 weeks

In those 12-15 weeks, case management is offered to each youth and their family

Cohort activities include ZOOM group lessons on Saturdays from 12-2pm. (Regular activities such as, groups in person and field trips, will resume as soon as possible after Covid restrictions are lifted.)

ReRoute staff advocate for youth at their schools to improve grades and attendance.

ReRoute provides leadership opportunities for youth who graduate from Re-route. They may become mentors to youth who will be enrolled in the next cohort. Stipend will be provided to youth leaders.
