Collaboration
Let's Get Ready's program model is highly replicable and effective because of the strength of our partnerships with colleges, high schools and community organizations. Programs in the fall and spring terms are built upon collaborations with colleges and universities, which are then partnered with specific high schools and/or community organizations. In the summer, programs partner with community organizations and/or local high schools.
