About
Description
Starfish Initiative is a brand committed to making a positive impact on the lives of marginalized youth in Indianapolis. Founded in 2003, their mission is to inspire, encourage, and prepare academically motivated high school students from vulnerable populations for college and career success. Their comprehensive Starfish Experience provides a statistically proven four-year pathway to economic mobility for Indianapolis high school students.
Central to their approach is mentoring, which they believe is key to improving educational attainment and the future of today's youth. Starfish Initiative matches every student in their program with a college-educated volunteer adult mentor, who makes a two-year commitment to meet with their mentee every other week. Mentors serve as life or college coaches and help the students work towards their goals of high school graduation, college enrollment, and beyond.
To ensure mentor success, Starfish Initiative provides support, training, and resources through their Match Specialists. Through their three core essentials of the Starfish model: College Readiness and Success, Career Exploration, and Character Development, Starfish Mentors and Match Specialists actively guide each scholar towards personal and academic success. With a proven track record of helping promising students overcome barriers, develop cultural capacity, and cultivate leadership skills, Starfish Initiative aims to close the college-access gap and improve graduation rates, ultimately making a difference for students and their families—one at a time
