Empowering the next generation! At United Way NCA, we're committed to guiding middle and high school students on their journey from the classroom to career or college success. We work with Title I schools to enhance attendance, behavior, and course performance. Our goal? To increase the number of students who apply and enroll in a post-secondary program or enter the workforce in a position that pays a livable wage and reduces the ALICE population. 🎓 Join us in this vital mission: https://bit.ly/3Wsv7aO #UnitedWayNCA #EducationForAll #CommunitySchools #Empowerment #LiveUnited

The crux of community development lies in education. United Way NCA champions the cause of ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) middle and high school students, ensuring they transition smoothly from education to career. Did you know? Across the National Capital Area, 48% of students enrolled in K-12 schools are economically disadvantaged, negatively impacting overall attendance and, ultimately, high-school graduation rates. In DC in 2022, 29% of all households with children are below the ALICE threshold (earning more than the Federal Poverty Level but less than the basic cost of living for the county/state in which they live). In a world with escalating dropout rates, interventions can be the pivot point. Find out how your organization can partner with us to drive change for these students: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eQRkGZWj #EducationInitiative #UnitedWayNCA #CorporateSocialResponsibility

ALICE – Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. This group represents a significant portion of our workforce who are employed yet struggle to afford basic necessities. In the National Capital Area, many are disproportionately affected, particularly Black households. As professionals, let’s advocate for policies and programs that provide true economic opportunity.
