Boys
and Girls Harbor |
Boys & Girls Harbor mini college is an enriched GED program collaboratively sponsored by Boys & Girls Harbor Inc., and the New York State Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services. In addition to traditional GED instruction, on site work experience training and computer literacy classes are offered as vocational enriching components. The pilot program was initiated September 1996 and is designed to service 80 students. These students, ages 17 through 22 have dropped out of school and are at risk of remaining uneducated and unemployed. Some have been referred from the Department of Probation, while many are self-referred. Their academic skills range from near illiteracy to college readiness skills. |
