Project Pathfinder provides tutoring services and mentoring support to juvenile offenders in helping them gain access to higher education. Our mission is to support our students in breaking the cycle of generational incarceration, charting their own course in life, and helping them to become leaders and contributing members of society. We are here to remind them – and the rest of society – that a setback is not a dead end!
Every year, thousands of young people in our justice system make one wrong turn that threatens to derail the rest of their lives. But what if that mistake didn’t have to be the end of their story?
At Project Pathfinder, we believe every young person deserves a real second chance. We provide free, high-quality tutoring and personalized mentoring to juvenile offenders who are ready to turn their lives around, empowering them to overcome academic barriers and personal challenges. Through one-on-one academic support and consistent, caring mentorship, we help these youth rebuild confidence, catch up in school, develop life skills, and create a positive future.
Through personalized academic support and consistent guidance, we help these youth gain access to higher education, break the cycle of generational incarceration, and embark on their own positive path in life.
Our goal is to turn young lives around and develop the next generation of leaders and contributing members of society — young people who are equipped to succeed and give back to their communities.
