"The Opportunity Network program has offered our students access to a diverse range of internships as well as careful preparation as they enter the workplace.
If ever there was a "win-win" situation, The Opportunity Network is it!"
-- Ada Rosario Dolch, Former Principal, The High School for Leadership and Public Service

The Opportunity Network’s distinctiveness lies in the fact that:

  • We place a unique emphasis on the importance of building professional relationships and a robust curriculum to teach it. To our knowledge, no other career non-profit for youth offers this kind of training, and we believe this it to be the “secret ingredient” to getting ahead.

  • Ours is a holistic program covering all of: career development, internships, formal networking curriculum, professional mentoring and college.

  • We stay with our kids for from junior year of high school all the way through college, a total of six years.

  • We offer exposure to/experience in a broad range of career tracks, not just business.

  • We achieve tangible results and our students complete the program with concrete outcomes.

  • We bring the strength, caliber and breadth of the vast NYON network to bear directly on our student programming.  Our access is their access.
