Adult Role-Models and Life
Skills / Success Coaching
California Community Partners for Youth (CCPY) focuses on challenged
teens who want the ability to make new life choices. They are often
unhappy with their current ircumstances, feel like they want and need
to make a change, but lack the insight or the guidance to do so.
An opportunity to use and further develop your skills while supporting
others to:
• Find worth in themselves,
• Develop personal responsibility,
• Access an inspiring future for themselves,
• See the value of becoming educated (and staying in school),
• Become more employable and self-reliant.
San Jose has over 20000 students who will likely drop out of high
school this year alone. CCPY serves primarily Hispanic youth at a High
School with one of the highest drop-out rates in the area. By having
youths and adults interact in an open and non-judgmental way through
group and individual discussion/meetings and social events, CCPY
demonstrates the value of staying in school, and guides the youths
through a process of creating a new vision for their lives.
