For Athletics & beyond, "Sports is a window to the world and a way out problem solution."
The Student-Athlete Program (SAP) is transformational in our approach working with marginalized youth primarily attending Denver Public Schools (DPS). Currently, there are no other programs in the Denver metro area that combine the aforementioned components into a whole-child approach to at-risk youth development. With the organization’s foundation goal and mission to increase high school and post-secondary, this approach has produced graduation and retention rates that are unrivaled by other organizations in the Denver Metro area. The Educational Success component of SAP provides academic support and resources and intensive mentoring. A&B hosts National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Eligibility Center workshops, requires academic tutoring; ACT and SAT preparation, and testing and monitoring of the academic progress of students. Additionally, throughout the year A&B student-athletes participate in college campus tours and sports camps and combine.
A&B provides Athletic Enrichment programming for several sites in Denver for grades K - 8. The Enrichment Program intentionally provides Social Emotional Learning opportunities for staff and scholars with the following five that align with the following five that are also part of Character Development Learning Initiative; Empathy, Emotion Management, Relationship Building, Responsibility, and Personal Development.
