What are they?
ERCs are alternative schools that provide at-risk youth the opportunity to earn their high school diploma. Each ERC is a partnership between SYF and one or more public school districts. ERC students receive job and life skills training, are able to set the pace of their education, and upon graduation they earn a diploma from the public school district.

Do they work?
As a direct result of the 25 ERCs located in 12 states across the U.S., thousands of students have been served. During the 2009-2010 school year, ERCs served 3,359 students, and graduated 1,184 students at a 91% rate.

How do I enroll?
