Project Infinity's mission is to Engage, Educate, Equip and Empower Our Homeless Youth. We offer participants the student-centered, trauma-informed, wrap-around support, resources, services and opportunities needed to improve outcomes. Our Gifted Resilient Able Determined Student (GRADS) Program meets key socio-academic needs of students experiencing housing insecurity; enabling them to achieve and enjoy the same levels of success as their stably-housed classmates.
