More about the Program
This program creates community not only at the college but in the Hampton Roads area. We connect with other programs to benefit our students and our surrounding communities. Through engaging lessons on independent living skills such as car management, investing, and CPR training, we are giving students the tools to be successful beyond college. As a network, we expose our students to pathways of success. At the Shop, we are a brotherhood determined to see your success! For more information sign up below, or contact us.
