Sometimes you don't know what's possible until you get the chance to experience it.

P.E.A.C.E! gives middle school students opportunities to explore new careers, build real world skills, meet people doing interesting things, visit new places, and discover interests they may not have known they had.

We're preparing for our first group of 10 Stars in Brooklyn.

And the best part? P.E.A.C.E! is completely FREE for every Star. ⭐

I'M INTERESTED Join our early interest list and we'll let you know when applications open.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE IT ALL FIGURED OUT.

Middle school is way too early to know exactly what you want to do with your life.

P.E.A.C.E! gives our Stars room to explore.

Ask questions. Try something different. Learn from people with real experience. Discover what interests you and maybe even discover something you're really good at.

We're here to help you see what's out there.

SO, WHAT WILL OUR STARS ACTUALLY DO?

A little bit of learning.A lot of exploring.

Explore careers

Meet people working in different fields and learn what they actually do.

Build real world skills

Practice communication, leadership, goal setting, teamwork, and other skills that go beyond the classroom.

Get out and experience things

Visit new places, participate in hands on activities, and see different environments up close.

Give back

Take part in service and learn what it means to pour back into your own community.

Discover themselves

Try new things, find new interests, build confidence, and start thinking about what could come next.

Sometimes all it takes is one experience to make a kid think...

“WAIT... I COULD DO THAT?”

SMALL GROUPBIG PURPOSE

We're starting small on purpose.

We want the chance to actually know our Stars. To learn what interests them. To build relationships with their families. To see what's working and make the program better as we grow.

This isn't about getting the biggest number of kids through the door.

It's about making the experience count.

You aren't just a number here.

SHOW UPTRYGROW

Being a Star comes with some responsibility too.

We're looking for young people who are willing to participate, ask questions, try new things, and show up for the experience.

You don't have to be the loudest person in the room.

You don't need perfect grades.

And you definitely don't need your whole future figured out.

Just come ready to grow.

Interested in P.E.A.C.E!?

Share your information below and we’ll keep you updated about enrollment and upcoming opportunities. You do not have to live in Brooklyn to participate, but families must be able to get their child to scheduled in person P.E.A.C.E! activities in Brooklyn.

WE'RE BUILDING THIS WITH CARE.

P.E.A.C.E! is currently in its building and fundraising stage, and we're not announcing an official start date just yet.

Why?

Because if we tell our Stars we're going to do something, we want to be able to do it.

Some experiences will depend on funding, partnerships, sponsorships, and the opportunities available to us. As the program grows, we'll continue building experiences that expose our Stars to more people, places, careers, and possibilities.

P.E.A.C.E! is free for every Star because our community helps make it possible.

THINK YOUR CHILD MIGHT BE A STAR? ✨

We're getting ready for our first P.E.A.C.E! program, and we'd love to know who's interested.

Parents and guardians can join our early interest list now. We'll reach out when applications and enrollment information are ready.

Joining the interest list does not guarantee acceptance or reserve a spot in the program.

EVERY STAR HAS A STORY

Let's give them more to write about ✨

This helps us understand where our Stars are coming from.

P.E.A.C.E! meeting locations are primarily in Brooklyn. Families are responsible for getting their child to and from the designated meeting location.
