Though 1+1=U's programming is not exclusive to local youth program development, we take great pride in efforts to the provisions of programming to vulnerable youth who are oftentimes regarded as, "the ones that no one else wants to engage." In an effort to sustainably meet their needs, our programming seeks to encourage self-enrichment, family enrichment, and academic enrichment in a holistic environment that promotes leadership and responsibility. We impress upon students the importance of being able to face both victories and lessons gracefully, teaching them how to cope with defeat, while still demonstrating ethical behavior, perseverance, resilience and self-discipline.

"1+1 gave me guidance in high school when I needed it the most. I had a 0.5 GPA and a 12 on the ACT. My dreams started to fade away. 1+1 helped me stay focused on the prize and taught me to never give up even in your darkest."
