Elevate Oregon
https://www.elevateoregon.orgElevate Oregon builds relationships with youth to promote education, self-reliance and achievement in the Parkrose School District. Through long-term, culturally responsive instruction and mentoring support, we empower young people toward success and leadership, with the goal that they become a strong positive influence in the community. Elevate Oregon was founded in 2010 as a principled, community response to identified inequities and disparities in access, opportunities, and outcomes for vulnerable youth, both in school and during out-of-school times. To achieve our mission, our goals are to: • Work with students enrolled in Elevate Oregon to define and pursue success in a way that is personally meaningful to them • Empower young people • Help students develop supportive peer networks • Offer leadership opportunities to hone skills built in, and out of, the classroom
