Jumpstart

 

Jumpstart, an AmeriCorps program, has a mission to work towards the day when every child enters school prepared to succeed.  This high quality, early education program cultivates adult-child relationships in low income neighborhoods in Brockton and Taunton.  Bridgewater State University students commit to working 200-300 hours, which includes pre-service and ongoing training sessions, classroom time and volunteer projects in the community. Students of all majors take part in this program.
