WHAT IS IT

 Our Student Enrichment Program (SEP) places site coordinators on school campuses throughout Duval County, with the goal of providing an array of critical services to students who are at-risk of falling behind or dropping out of school.  While site coordinators work individually with select students from the school body, hundreds of others are reached through school-wide services such as career fairs, literacy programs and parent events. 

Program Focus:

To provide a full spectrum of critical services to the students attending schools, through collaboration with Communities In Schools’ TEAM UP, Take Stock In Children, Achievers For Life and Duval Reads! programs, as well as other non-profits.
