Our Programs
Branches’ programs focus on student achievement, family services, and financial wellness.
The Grow programs serve elementary students, the Climb programs serve middle and high school students and young adults, and the Achieve programs serve adults and families.
Three fundamental characteristics that shape and define the Grow, Climb and Achieve experience for those who pass through the doors of Branches at any of the sites are;
- A place to Be Loved and to Be Known – Branches provides so much more than a menu of programs that serve our participants. At Branches, each person is valued as a child of God. Through loving, personal relationships, children and adults are affirmed and nurtured. The transformative power of care, concern and love defines the uplifting atmosphere found at Branches.
- A Cornerstone for Community – Branches creates an environment where people from all backgrounds come together and form a community of support for one another. A real social network is established where children and their families are connected to needed resources, learning opportunities and accountability. There is an expectation that everyone will grow their talents and use their gifts to improve one’s self and to serve the community.
- A time to Cultivate Opportunities to Learn and Grow – Branches best serves those who are motivated to change and improve. By providing strategic opportunities, Branches enables children and families to expand their horizons and to begin to experience success. Through a long term process of learning and growing, those served by Branches realize their potential in education and in life.
