Academic Coach
TRU-Impact coaches are local college students committed to community service and making a difference. Learners are matched with coaches who have specific subject expertise.
Impact Coach
Each student receives an Impact Coach — a mentor who works as the liaison between the school administration, Academic Coaches (tutors), parents, and community resources.
Learners
Learners range from 2nd to 12th grade. Around each student's school schedule, we provide one-on-one attention that isn't always available to them, plus a remarkable mentoring program for every learner.
How We Impact Families
TRU-Impact understands the significance of the family unit in a student's success. Our Zoom "Family Night" brings family members, learners, coaches, and staff together to socialize, play games, and connect — and we help families navigate community resources along the way.
OUR APPROACH
How We Work
A simple, relationship-first process — designed around the young person, not the paperwork.
Connect
We meet the youth and family through school, court, or community referral.
Assess
We listen first — identifying strengths, needs, and the right program fit.
Match
Youth are paired with a trained mentor or program suited to their goals.
Support
Ongoing check-ins, family engagement, and milestone tracking over time.
