èßäÊÓÆµ
Reconnection Services connects youth with alternative educational options. We believe all young people can rise above seemingly insurmountable obstacles to learn, to excel in èßäÊÓÆµ, and to ultimately graduate. We work to restore their hope in the institution of education and reimagine themselves as worthy and capable of èßäÊÓÆµ success.

How it works
Reconnection Services’ Outreach Coordinators reach out to over 1,000 Portland Public School middle and high èßäÊÓÆµ èßäÊÓÆµ each year who have left, or are at-risk of leaving, èßäÊÓÆµ early without a diploma. For those interested in exploring educational options and getting back into èßäÊÓÆµ, an education plan is put into place and a relationship is established with one of our Outreach Coordinators. Together, transcripts are reviewed, along with personal barriers and educational goals, to ensure the best possible èßäÊÓÆµ fit.

Continued Support
Once a student is re-enrolled, Reconnection Services’ Outreach Coordinators continue to provide support through ongoing case management and connection to community resources that reduce barriers and boost a student’s chance to graduate from èßäÊÓÆµ.
