The NextGen Program Mission
Help youth develop themselves into independent strong adults who believe in lifelong learning and strive for higher career aspirations.
Vision
Preserve our dynamic learning center, which promotes cultural diversity and serves students of all backgrounds. We increase students’ ability to set and achieve realistic goals through education and work place experience. We reinforce a positive self-esteem and values in which to build a successful life. We are continuously improving our practices through innovation, creativity, and student involvement.
Core Ideology
