About this grant

Through this grant, the Grand Rapids Community Foundation will work to improve policy and practice to prevent young people from dropping out of school, provide multiple pathways for graduation, re-engage those who have already left school, and encourage support for such youth toward a post-secondary experience and/or entry into the labor market. Grand Rapids is one of three citywide partnership sites participating in the Improving Outcomes for Out-of-School Youth in Michigan project.
