Participating in any program that serves youth is a serious responsibility. You have the opportunity to create positive change in the lives of Upward Bound students as well as in your own. The Upward Bound Program is designed to assist first-generation college students and/or low-income high school students preparing for the post-secondary opportunities. The progress a student makes is dependent upon the support, attention and help them receives from Upward Bound staff.
