During the 2018-2019 school year, MeckEds Career Pathways initiative served over 2,000 students in six Charlotte-Mecklenburg High Schools by providing work-based learning opportunities and intensive support, career training, placement, and coaching for over 160 of the regions highest need students. MeckEds Out of School Time initiative, Charlotte NEXT, launched a program Locator to help parents and caregivers find enrichment programs for children. Since it was launched in early 2017, Locator has received over 13,000 online visitors and today is profiling over 500 different enrichment programs! Additionally, MeckEd provides professional development for After-School enrichment providers who, together, are positively impacting over 10,000 students. A pilot program in three high-need CMS middle schools is supporting five different program providers who are offering over 6,000 additional hours of enrichment to students. A partnership with the Mecklenburg County Youth Coalition and the Mayors Mentoring Alliance has resulted in including mentors on Locator. MeckEd also holds six Community Conversations annually to assist in spotlighting critical issues related to young people and their preparation for success. During the past year, MeckEd informed and engaged over 150 civic leaders and program providers on topics that included Effective Career and Technical Education, The Impact of Desegregation and Re-segregation on CMS Children and Families, and The Power and Promise of Out of School Time Enrichment Programs.
