Inspiring Lives, Removing Barriers
An education crisis in Indianapolis.
In the Indianapolis metropolitan area, specifically in low income inner city neighborhoods, much of the population is quite disadvantaged. Due largely in part to a lack in vocational skills, many young people are struggling with unemployment and underemployment.
18.9%
Estimated percent of Indianapolis population living below the poverty level
14.3%
National average living below the poverty level
8x
High school dropouts are 8 times more likely to be incarcerated or create serious crimes on the streets
$1 million
Dropouts can earn up to $1 million less in their lifetime compared to a peer who graduates from college
While many individuals of disadvantaged backgrounds may have the drive and inspiration to pursue higher education, most lack the funding and other resources to make their dreams a reality. We help bridge that gap.
TASC/HSE/GED Preparation Course*
The GED preparation course that our organization utilizes is called the Test Assessing Secondary Completion, or TASC. TASC is a national high school equivalency assessment that assesses five subject areas including Reading, Writing, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies.
*NOTICE: Indiana Department of Workforce Development (DWD) recently announced the transition from the TASC test to the HiSET® Exam.
Educate Beyond All Barriers had just made this change to be compliant with the State Of Indiana. Keeping up to date helps us to be productive in working with the disadvantaged in our communities to reach higher educational goals.
