Project Graduation is a new program designed to significantly increase high school graduation and college enrollment among at-risk students by creating a supportive and knowledgeable family environment. The three-year program will target families in Highland Park and Hamtramck, and will assist parents and their children ages 13-17 to develop specific goals and an action plan to graduate high school and go to college through individualized family counseling and community education programs. The program will be conducted in coordination with similar activities already begun in Detroit with support from the Skillman Foundation.
