As an alumnus of Pathways/Senderos and now a volunteer, I have come to recognize the great power of community-centered mentorship. The transformative nature of this program is not in shaping one’s academic trajectory, but rather in affirming their sense of belonging and purpose. This community sees the potential in every student to succeed and rise above the contexts that have shaped their lives thus far. It’s important to rewrite the narrative for students at Pathways and future generations, and continue pouring into our youth through mentorship so they may one day be able to deliver the same.
