Serving 17,000 children in a hundred block area, Harlem Children's Zone implements a new method to end the cycle of generational poverty. An entire community is empowered with information at the same time that the educational needs of the community's children are being met. Parents learn developmental milestones to watch for and discover ways to turn ordinary life at home into an educational experience.
The Harlem Children's Zone sees families through a child's college experience. Ninety percent of the nonprofit's high school participants go on to study on the university level. This incoming freshman class obtained over $6.4 million in scholarships and grants.
