About Us

Transforming Lives for Tomorrow

Advancing Communities Together

ACT is a non-profit organization that works to transform the lives of young people and their communities.

We do this by providing academic and career readiness opportunities, building and nurturing the spirit of young people, and the communities they reside in through social justice, advocacy, and agents of change.

We believe that every young person has the right to a bright, successful future.

We know that many young people in our communities lack access to academic and career readiness opportunities and have little support for their social justice needs.
