About CORE, powered by The Rogers Foundation

CORE is a long-term, two-generational, holistic, and collective impact model serving under-resourced students (“Scholars”). Scholars are accepted into CORE starting in 6th grade after a home visit and parent interview. From 6th grade through 12th grade, Scholars participate in afterschool and weekend programming; concurrently, their families work with CORE staff to develop support networks, continue their own education, and develop the skills necessary to be successful in the workplace. After graduation, Scholars are engaged with CORE through our Alumni Network to ensure that they stay on course with their post-secondary goals (e.g., career, school, military, community service). CORE’s programming focuses on the individual needs of each Scholar and their family. For the families, the goal is to create stability in the home and to provide a pathway to better jobs and education. Meanwhile, we work with each Scholar on developing stronger character, aligning their strengths with career and college opportunities, and providing the experiences and tools needed to lead choice filled lives in and out of school.
