More than ever, the United States needs innovative, proven ways to boost academic achievement, college admissions, and graduation rates among the nation’s fast-growing Latino population. This new report shows how communities can achieve these goals by building a pathway of support that extends from kindergarten through college. Summarized are lessons learned from the ENLACE initiative, which the Kellogg Foundation established in 1997. And while the ENLACE experience targets Latino youth, what it teaches us about the benefits of parental and community involvement can apply to children of all backgrounds.
