Program areas at Escalera
Reach sends ninth-grade students to high school who otherwise would not go. In rural chiapas, less than half of middle school graduates continue their education. Reach aims to end this problem by giving small, well-timed scholarships that help students cover their high school entrance exam fees and costs of supplies and uniforms in small installments every semester they remain in school
School building and rsa learning centers. Escalera built a school in the village of yaltem and began a collaboration with family health international to start a program of listening and learning groups with indigenous beneficiaries.
Emprende. Escalera seeks to improve lives through education in innovative, cost-effective ways. Employment opportunities in chiapas are scarce and even a good education does not guarantee a job. Instead, many students will need to create their own enterprises to generate income. We are using a best-practice curriculum for teaching these skills to high school students.
