We are seeking Finance, Healthcare, and STEM-industry volunteers to share their career journeys with students and bring learning to life.

Citizen Schools is a national nonprofit and we believe that equity begins with opportunity. To close the opportunity gap in education, we need systems change, which requires work at multiple levels. We bring students hands-on learning projects with career mentors after school, coach and train teachers to provide these opportunities during school, and share capacity, resources & best practices with other communities.
