✂️ Empowering the Next Generation Through Skill & Opportunity ✂️

Students at Hillcrest High School are gaining hands-on barbering experience through the Cut One School One Youth Crime Intervention program!

Under the guidance of our incredible instructors Remonica Hightower and Thomesha Dunford, students are learning real barbering techniques, professionalism, and the discipline required to build a career in the grooming industry.

Programs like this do more than teach a skill — they create pathways to entrepreneurship, confidence, and opportunity for our youth.

👏🏾 Special shout out to Iota Community Schools for investing in their students and believing in innovative programs that prepare young people for the future.

When we invest in our youth, we invest in safer communities and brighter futures.

From “pipeline to prison” ➜ to “pipeline to purpose.”
Mississippi & Tennessee | 2024–2025 snapshot

🚨 School discipline & justice contact (risk side)

MS: State report-card data show 14,475 violent incidents in 2022-23 (down from 15,654 in 2021-22). Black students face higher suspension rates than peers, a known entry point to the pipeline.

U.S. context (applies to MS & TN): In 2023, youth placement in residential facilities was 87 per 100,000 nationwide; Black youth were placed at 293 per 100,000 vs. 52 per 100,000 for white youth (disparity ~5.6×).

TN: The state’s juvenile system reported a 98.7% diversion rate to keep youth out of state custody in FY2024, and the recidivism rate fell to 12%—showing what strong diversion and services can do.

✅ School → skills-trade (protective side)

TN: Technical colleges routinely place ~9 in 10 grads in field-of-study jobs; latest statewide materials and campus dashboards echo ~90%+ placement and strong licensure pass rates. (Also, TN is investing $1.5B to expand/modernize TCATs.)

MS: Career & Technical Education momentum is real—2,500+ MS high-school CTE concentrators earned a recognized postsecondary credential in 2023, building direct bridges to work.

Our solution:
Cut One • School One Youth Crime Intervention + QCAC are scaling a School → Skill → Career pathway that blends:

Career training (barbering & entrepreneurship),

Arts-based engagement (QCAC after-school programs), and

Mentorship + diversion partnerships with schools & courts.
This replaces exclusion with belonging, skills, and paychecks—the opposite of the pipeline.

Call to action:
Schools, parents, and community partners in Quitman, Tunica, DeSoto, and Shelby—let’s refer students before suspension or court. Bring them to Cut One • School One x QCAC and watch the data move from incidents & placements ➜ to credentials & jobs.

👉 Message us to enroll a student, set up a school diversion referral, or sponsor a cohort.
