Cars - College Access Readiness & Success

CARS creates pathways to post-secondary education for underserved high school students and their families through academic enrichment and college literacy.

A free, cohort-based college-pathway program for underserved, largely first-in-family South Bay Los Angeles County students, spanning a 5-year journey from high school through the first year of college. CARS invests roughly 240 hours of programming and support per family annually and has served approximately 200 students and families to date. The program operates as a fiscally-sponsored project of Community Partners and was founded by Arif Haji.
