The Beacon Program is a dynamic, school-based community center in North Brooklyn, servicing youth aged 11 and up*. This program helps young people acquire the skills they need to graduate from high school, succeed in their chosen career, and give back to the community. Typical activities include tutoring and reading help, career exploration and financial literacy workshops, cooking classes and organized sports, as well as arts initiatives like music, dance, photography, and drama. The High School Education Support program is an additional contract focused around offering career, college, and academic support with an internship component, with a Family Development Coach specifically for this program.
