Massachusetts Promise Fellowship

The Massachusetts Promise Fellowship (MPF) is dedicated to increasing youth social emotional learning (SEL), academic enrichment and college and career exploration through Out-of-School-Time (OST) interventions and data-driven programming. We are a passionate team that strives every day to empower young people to succeed as part of a national movement to achieve their educational aspirations.
