Student Success Network
Student Success Network is a connected, NYC-wide consortium of education and youth development nonprofits focused on improving student outcomes, together. Meringoff funding supports its Elevating Youth Voice program, aimed at putting youth leaders on the forefront of driving improvement at youth serving organizations. This program activates youth leaders, providing opportunities for them to practice the advocacy and leadership skills to partner with adults and effect change, and coaches program staff in building structures and tools to become truly youth informed.
"Before, I was just a part of the program, I was just a student that they were serving. Now, I can take the initiative and put myself in a leadership role instead of just sitting back and watching."
