STREET SMARTS

STREET Smarts is an initiative dedicated to assisting Lansing's under-resourced and often underachieving public high schools – cultivating adult/youth Life-on-Life relationships to create a safer and more effective learning environment for our teens.

STREET Smarts mobilizes caring Christian adults to serve our schools, in hopes that hallways are saturated with people and resources to meet the practical needs of the school and people within it. STREET Smarts connects volunteers to teach after-school courses, assist teachers and administrators both inside and outside of the classroom, orchestrate school-wide assemblies, lead small group lunchroom discussions, teach the creative arts, coach sports teams, and connect students with positive extracurricular activities, such as our Monday night program.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to provide direction to help Lansing's urban teens discover their purpose, by building resiliency so they can impact their communities.  

We would love to stay in touch! Sign up below to be updated on upcoming events or announcements from us. Don’t worry, we’ll keep your email address safe.

OUR VISION

Our vision is of a Lansing where every teenager's future is bright, and their potential to rebuild and revitalize their community is unlocked.
