Our Program
Future Focus is an in-school program based in Orlando, Florida that offers creative, evidence-based, innovative, and alternative opportunities for youth to achieve academic success. We see students as people first, following a holistic approach to education by considering their personal strengths, challenges, and circumstances. Our 5 pillars; Compassion, Education, Collaboration, Empowerment, and Accountability, uphold every effort we strive for.
Working with fellow staff and stakeholders, Future Focus is a dynamic support system serving students. Our mission is to develop successful and thriving youth by giving them the tools to:
-
Find their purpose (in their lives, family, community and the world)
-
Change their perspective (on their lives and future)
-
Pursue their dreams (relentlessly and strategically)
By engaging our youth through programs and mentorship, our goal is to equip them to be forward-thinking and compassionate leaders of tomorrow.
