Project N.O.A.H. (New Options Awaken Hope) is our entry program, designed to help young mothers with children ages 0-3 years old, graduate high school, college or trade school while simultaneously providing wraparound services such as mentorship, tutoring, a study hall, transportation, day care, case management services, financial literacy, and other supportive services that will help them be successful inside and outside of the classroom.
While they are in class, the participants’ young children will be enrolled in high quality early childhood development programs on site so they will achieve and/or exceed standard psychological and academic developmental benchmarks for their age group. Our goal is to decrease poverty two generations at a time and for this model to be replicated across the United States.
Summer Bridge Program
Sponsored by:
As a bridge from high school to a skilled trades program, we have partnered with Trane Technologies to introduce young moms to the skilled trades. Our classes include graduates of Pathways Academy as well as those who have already graduated high school. Our objectives for this partnership is to spark the interest of our participants in the skilled trades industry and to prepare them to complete our Mechanical Maintenance Program. where they will leave equipped with the confidence to obtain entry level employment in the industry, start their own business, and or enroll into an apprenticeship program. The scope and sequence will be as follows for the cohort:
-
Participate in a Career Fair and Mentorship Program with Trane Staff Members.
-
Meet at the Redeem Detroit facility weekly to receive training that is aligned to the Mechanical Maintenance Trades Curriculum and an Apprenticeship Program.
-
Job training to learn how to use your skills for Financial Empowerment
While teen moms are in class, their children will receive a quality daycare experience that will strengthen the following childhood psychological developmental stages:
-
Cognitive Development
-
Social and Emotional Development
-
Speech and Language Development
-
Fine Motor Skill Development

Our measurements of success is that 80% who finish the Trane Summer Bridge program will enroll into a full time skilled trades school or program and eventually earn their license and enter into the workforce as technicians and even become employees of in the skilled trades industry..
