IMPACTO is an after-school academic enrichment program designed to motivate and inspire underserved youth of Boyle Heights. In an area plagued with poverty, a suffering public education system, and the threat of gang violence, the youth served at IMPACTO are provided with more than an after school program; they are given hope, encouragement, alternatives, and a safe haven. IMPACTO works to empower youth through tutoring, personal development, local community participation and increased social awareness so that they may become great civic leaders of tomorrow. IMPACTO serves nearly 200 youth at two sites: a center-based site and a school-based site at Dolores Mission School. The program runs year-round from 2:30-6:00pm during the school year and from 11:00am – 5:30pm during the summer.

My position gives me the beautiful opportunity to assist both in structurally addressing needs of the students and getting to work alongside and build relationships with them. My mornings are divided between recruiting, training and overseeing volunteers, searching for available resources and working with and learning from the staff to organize enrichments and other student activities.
