Through educational programs and initiatives, the NCSHP aims to inspire students to stay in school engage parents in the education of their children to help them graduate from High School and Go to College. One of their initiatives is the !Graduáte! Program, designed to help Hispanic students, in grades 9-12, achieve academic success, graduate from high school, and become the leaders of tomorrow.

In addition, I advised Hispanic high school students and parents about educational resources and opportunities for higher education and assisted high school seniors with college applications, scholarships, and FAFSA. Other responsibilities included establishing strong community partnerships and recruiting mentors and volunteers.
