UCB has a Transformations program funded through our Financial Stability Impact Investment.
In the Transformations program clients establish goals for success in their personal and professional lives. Clients will be encouraged to maintain employment or continue their education and will be encouraged to develop supportive relationships. The Transformations program implements the Jobs for Life curriculum that provides proven techniques that will enable enrollees to obtain and maintain employment or secure a higher paying position. The program includes career assessment, in-class reading, class and group discussions, and required home assignments.
They also have two programs funded through our Education Impact Investment: Club Kid Connect and United Community School House.
Club Kid Connect is a six-week youth academy for pre-kindergarten to sixth grade students. They provide children with a safe and nurturing environment during the summer to enable them to successfully transition to the new school year. Their staff provide instructional learning in math, reading, and the creative arts to help students maintain academic skills gained during the previous school year and provide instruction to prepare them for higher grade courses.
United Community School House provides child development programming for pre-kindergarten to fifth grade students with curriculum that provides a sequence of learning objectives that prepares each child for kindergarten readiness. Elementary school participants receive homework assistance, and instructional learning in math, reading, and sciences. Their goal is to develop a love of learning in each child and to provide the foundations for their future academic success.
