It is critical to building, staff, and youth capacity if we want to implement an effective program strategy that drives positive youth outcomes. Our organization's capacity-building efforts include a plan to do the following:

• Build youth capacity to become efficient, involved, creative learners through academic and social-emotional skill-building opportunities. 

• Build staff capacity to design and facilitate impactful learning experiences, including homework help, tutoring, and self-awareness activities.

• Build an organization capacity to align spaces, structures, and partnerships to support learning. 

The investment opportunities that could take P.O.E.T.I.C.'s to the next level include:

• Staffing Resources
• Training Resources
• Programming Resources

We are making incredible progress thanks to the support of people like you who share a commitment in changing the lives of the youth we serve.
