The Starfish Initiative is a local college access and readiness program serving economically disadvantaged high school students in Marion County. They believe that mentoring is the key to improving the educational attainment and future of today's youth. To that end, they match every student in the Starfish program with a college-educated, volunteer adult mentor whose job is to help walk their student into college. Thanks to the guidance of their mentors, 100 percent of the Starfish Scholars who completed the program have graduated from high school and are enrolled in colleges or universities across Indiana - and beyond.
