NAF connects high school students to real-world career pathways, and hands-on learning—so they graduate prepared for college, careers, and economic mobility.
NAF expands access to opportunity by helping students develop practical skills, discover their interests, and connect learning to real careers — especially those who may lack exposure to professional networks.
NAF expands opportunity through open-enrollment, career-connected academies embedded in public high schools. By integrating career pathways into the school day, students who may lack exposure to professional environments gain the chance to explore their interests, develop practical skills, and connect learning to real careers—early enough to shape their futures.
