The Center brings together two Bank Street initiatives that have well-established records of efficacy over time. These initiatives originally served two constituencies through separate but interconnected programs. The first, the Liberty Partnerships Program (LPP), began 17 years ago and has had tremendous success working with youth at risk of dropping out of high school.
The second program under the Center umbrella is known as I-LEAD (Institute for Leadership, Excellence and Academic Development). This program serves promising, high-achieving students at under-resourced schools and prepares them to become competitive applicants to selective colleges and universities.
