Our first Southern California site opened in 2012 in the East Los Angeles community of Boyle Heights, thanks to our partnership with the i.am.angel Foundation.
From Ocean Depths to Healing Hearts: Jasmine’s Journey from Marine Biology to Immunology
Rooted in Boyle Heights. Built for the Long Haul.
College Track Boyle Heights isn’t just a program in this community — it’s part of it. For years, families have trusted us to walk alongside their students, and that trust runs deep: many of today’s scholars are the younger siblings, cousins, and neighbors of alumni who came before them.
That kind of loyalty doesn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of real relationships — with students, with families, and with three incredible partner schools: Roosevelt High School, Math Science Technology Magnet Academy, and Boyle Heights Hilda Solis Learning Center.
We’ve made a promise to stay exactly where we are. While other programs expand outward, we’ve chosen to go deeper — investing in this one neighborhood, for the long term, because we believe lasting change happens when you show up for a community again and again, year after year.
If you feel like you can't necessarily change the world, change the world for the people closest to you.
