| Introduction | The goal of the Incentive Mentoring Program is to transform teenagers who are failing high school into Baltimore City's most valuable role models. IMP extends a school-based tutoring program to the home, providing both academic and social support to youth struggling with poverty, drugs, and violence. Mentoring teams, called "IMP Families" not only support teenagers in overcoming their own adversity, but also show them how empowering it is to help others do the same. Although only 38.5% of Baltimore City children will receive a high school diploma on time, IMP students have achieved a 100% graduation and 100% college acceptance rate. Teens on the verge of expulsion from high school are now attending colleges across the US. These triumphant individuals, equipped with both education and passion, will create a powerful force of social change. |
