"100% of Atlanta New Look youth can identify a passion after being engaged in the program, as opposed to 64% before the program."
Atlanta is the birthplace of New Look. And, with 2010 high school graduation rates below 70%, Atlanta needs more support for its young people. Not only does New Look boast a 98% graduation rate for youth engaged two years or longer, but is giving youth in Atlanta transferable skills for success in life. New Look Atlanta youth compose a core training team that has lead the leadership training for their peers in London, Kenya, Vancouver, New York, Chicago, Detroit, Biloxi and Los Angeles. At home in Atlanta, youth are executing Powered By Service projects on issues related to disaster relief, malaria awareness, and education.
