The Education Co-Op brings together 13 organizations working collaboratively to support and strengthen youth and families through education, resources, career development, and tech literacy.

Hosted at the Tony Hopson Center for Self Enhancement, the summit was a day of connection, collaboration, and celebration. Elevate Youth was excited to bring interactive games, family activities, and prizes that encouraged engagement and fun for attendees of all ages.

A special thank you to and the for providing 12 scholarships of $1,000 each to seniors and older youth attending the summit. These opportunities represent the power of community partnerships coming together to invest in the next generation.

Thank you to all of the families, youth, partners, and community leaders who helped make this event a success. We look forward to continuing this important work together! 💙🧡

🖌️🖼️🎨Elevate Youth repainted the Elevate offices! Our kids painted several murals under the creative direction of former Teacher-Mentor Amariyana Berry. We’re so grateful to have hand-painted murals on the walls; each one reminds us of the youth we serve & why we care about them. Our kids are incredibly talented, creative, and bold in leaving their mark. Swipe through to see the full designs!
