College & Career Success
Following high school graduation, BHGH continues to support Scholars with personalized coaching, skill-building, networking, supportive housing, and merit-based scholarships through their career launch. Depending on each Scholar’s goals, they enter this program as a “Collegian” (pursing a 4-year degree) or “Fellow” (pursing a 2-year degree, certification, internship, or other pre-professional training).
1:1 Coaching
Each post–secondary Scholar is matched with a trained Coach dedicated to their career launch. Scholars and their Coach communicate monthly for individualized case management, which includes checking in on academic & personal wellbeing, goals, and discussing how to navigate potential barriers.
Networking
Our professional networking initiative, HopeNet, brings together our post–secondary Scholars, corporate partners, and local professionals for monthly events designed to build connections and support our post–secondary Scholars as they join the emerging workforce.
Workshops
To prepare all Scholars to enter the workforce, we regularly offer workshops that address critical skills such as independent living, interview and job seeking skills, financial empowerment, organization, mental health and wellness, and more.
Scholarships
Throughout their engagement in BHGH programming, Scholars accrue funds in individual ‘Success Funds’ that can be accessed during their post–secondary education to be applied towards critical education and basic needs expenses.
Supportive Housing
In 2023, BHGH opened our first home for post–secondary Scholars. This newly renovated home is adjacent to our existing campus and provides supportive housing and services to 18–24 year old Scholars engaged in our College & Career Success Program.
