About Project SUCCESS

Project SUCCESS is a nonprofit youth-development organization that works with students in inner-city public schools over a six-year period, from middle school through high school, to help them develop life skills and inspire them to act on their dreams. Through in-school, goal-setting workshops, an innovative theater program, and after-school individual services, students learn to make informed choices and plan for meaningful futures.
