Future Ready, our Navigation approach for college and career-bound teens, prepares students grades 7-12 for lifelong success. They receive year-round academic and navigation support as they develop job and life skills. Students work with their Navigator to chart a personalized college and career plan, and we work with employer partners to match students with jobs. Once placed, we continue to develop students as employees through workshops, hands-on learning experiences, and academic support. Partner with us! Become an Employer Partner.

RIY is an educationally enhanced community program that creates stability for vulnerable youth by helping them build positive relationships, academic successes, and healthy engagement with their families, schools and communities. The program enrolls youth (ages 11-17) who are at-risk for involvement with juvenile justice or child and family services systems. Most live within the Rochester City School District and are referred by FACT, probation officers, or school personnel.
