This past school year, our Marin team showed up for students in powerful ways. We worked to eliminate barriers to college access, provided essential mental health support, and fostered a sense of community among young Newcomers—children and adolescents who have recently arrived in the country, including immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers —as they adapt to new systems and cultures. We’re excited to share our wins in this program update, which highlights the meaningful change happening across our programs and celebrates the resilience of the young people we serve.
What’s Inside:
- Access to College Equity (ACE) program outcomes: helping students navigate the path to higher education
- Mental health support services updates: creating safe spaces for healing and growth
- Newcomer youth programming (Nuestra Salud) details: building community and providing resources for recently arrived students
The numbers tell an important story, but what matters most are the students behind them—young people who are writing their own futures with determination, creativity, and support from caring adults who believe in them. Thank you to our staff, partners, funders, and most importantly, the students who trust us to walk alongside them. Here’s to building on this momentum in the year ahead!
