UTILIZING A UNIQUE COMBINATION OF YOUTH DEVELOPMENT, WORKFORCE READINESS AND EDUCATIONAL SERVICES, THIS STRATEGY OFFERS A RELATIONSHIP-CENTERED APPROACH TO HELP YOUNG PEOPLE ACCESS AND ATTAIN A MIX OF ACADEMIC, EMPLOYMENT, AND PERSONAL SKILLS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THEIR SUCCESS.

A YDS HELPS EACH OPP YOUTH TO CREATE AN INDIVIDUALIZED PLAN BASED ON THEIR OWN GOALS, INCORPORATING THE EDUCATION AND EMPLOYMENT SERVICES THAT WE HAVE TO OFFER. HOWEVER, ON A LESS TANGIBLE LEVEL, THE YDS IS THE ONE WHO BUILDS A TRUSTING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE YOUTH, CONVINCING THEM TO STAY ON TRACK AND PURSUE THEIR DREAMS.BASED ON THE SITUATION AND NEED, OPP OFFERS THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMS AND SERVICES THAT ASSIST WITH THE YOUTHS JOURNEY ALONG HIS OR HER PATHWAY:ACADEMIC SUPPORT AND COLLEGE PLANNING & RETENTION SERVICES OPP OFFERS EXTENDED DAY ACADEMIC TUTORING, SUPPLEMENTAL EDUCATION SERVICES, AND COMPREHENSIVE COLLEGE AND CAREER GUIDANCE SERVICES TO YOUTH AND THEIR FAMILIES.
