The Victory Project (Family Literacy Program)

Program Overview

The Victory Project (TVP) is an after-school, innovative, community-based program that encompasses mentoring, education, athletics and literacy to encourage positivity in our youth. TVP will address the personal, educational and social needs of students and their families through caring relationships and structured programming. We will also use organized recreational sports programs such as youth leagues, adult leagues, clinics and seminars to enrich local communities. TVP is a family literacy program that will engage the entire family to embrace literacy and comprehension. This program is free and the only requirement for participation is each child must be accompanied with their entire household or at least one adult. There are many great incentives to the program such as homework assistance, healthy snacks, a meal and transportation is available. The books that the children use during the program will be theirs to keep in order to help them build their personal home library.
