True North AmeriCorps
The Y's True North AmeriCorps (TNAC) program is dedicated to enhancing long term education equity outcomes by increasing K-8th grade students' social emotional learning (SEL) skills. TNAC members facilitate daily interventions including positive relationship building, academic enrichment, and individualized SEL skill building with identified students at their site. By engaging positive adults as mentors to provide interventions for youth with unmet needs, the program will improve participants' social and emotional skills, attitude towards learning, and resiliency; ultimately increasing their likelihood to graduate high school on time.
