Join the Eugene-Springfield NAACP to kick off the 2019-20 school year! Many community partners will be on hand to offer information on making the most of this school year for parents and students.

This year is shaping up to be a transformative time for the youth of Lane County, with community partners as well as the Governor stepping forward in collective action to support youth statewide. The NAACP is especially happy to be part of the 2019-20 Lane regional effort to raise African American/Black graduation rates and increase civic engagement.

Sign up at the event or by emailing BTS@naacplanecounty.org to get involved with the NAACP’s youth programs:

• Pre-K-5th grade: SMART reading program– free books with every session.

• Middle school: BTS tutoring and computer lab; civic engagement opportunities.

• High school: Youth Council; tutoring and volunteer opportunities; Act-So Competition.
