<p>PCCE- Geneva 2030 VISTA</p> <p>Geneva 2030 is a cradle-to-career collective impact initiative uniting schools, colleges, businesses, and community organizations to ensure every child in Geneva can thrive. The initiative focuses on early literacy, high school graduation, and post-secondary readiness, with an emphasis on removing barriers for all youth. Geneva 2030 empowers students, engages families, and creates pathways to lifelong success. This project serves Geneva High School students in grades 9-12, particularly those from low-income families who qualify for free or reduced lunch. Many face challenges accessing college and career opportunities due to financial constraints, limited guidance, and lack of resources. The program prioritizes students who may not have access to mentorship, career connections, or college preparation support. Its goal is to equip them with the tools and confidence to navigate post-secondary opportunities.

Key tasks include organizing college visits, hosting ""College Chats"" on FAFSA and admissions, and providing direct guidance to students and families.
