We’re enabling career pathways and workforce development systems to become more equitable and accessible.
New Mexico leads the nation in the percentage of “Opportunity Youth;” those who are not in school and not working. Because of this, it’s crucial for us to expand and improve access to college, career and community pathway opportunities for Northern New Mexico youth of color, lower income youth and young parents. We helped launch the Northern New Mexico Pathways to Opportunity Strategy Table to better coordinate, increase and leverage regional grant making and investments to improve outcomes for underrepresented youth.
