We provide services based on a sliding fee scale and are committed to providing 50% of services to people in poverty.
Mentoring kids from hard places in partnership with local churches. Today’s culture is brutal on families. When children don’t receive enough quality time with loving adults, they can be lured into self-destructive behaviors. Ezekiel Ministries partners with local churches to help recruit loving adult mentors who will make a long-term investment in children’s lives. As a result, children make better decisions, families grow stronger, and communities are forever changed.
AVID's mission is to close the achievement gap by preparing all students for college readiness and success in a global society. AVID can transform schools and districts so that students, particularly those students who are first generation college-goers, will be successful in college and a career. AVID believes that the most effective way to help schools is to improve the quality of their teachers’ instruction and school leadership. This builds sustainability, accountability, hope, and positive morale directly into the fabric of a school and ultimately an entire school district. And a marked improvement in a community’s schools creates ripples of benefit for the community. In these trying economic times, it is vital to involve the community in the success of its schools, and AVID is structured and delivered in such a way that the family created in the AVID classroom can be extended to a school, a district and a community of hope for the success of students.
