Our Programs

Our programs at Colorado Youth for a Change address early warning signs of dropping out: entering Kindergarten unprepared to learn; lack of reading proficiency by the end of third grade and algebra proficiency by the end of eighth grade for young students; and chronic absenteeism and course failure for youth in high school. Colorado Youth for a Change also reaches out to thousands of disconnected and out-of-school youth each year, getting them back in school and on a path to graduation and postsecondary opportunities.
