Scholars actively advocate for themselves to build strong support networks, develop leadership skills and positive character traits all while giving back to their community.
Scholars engage directly with community partners in the arts and health & wellness industries to explore their creativity and maintain their focus and growth mindset.
Scholars work with Core Academic Advisors and industry leaders in our community to develop the skill sets necessary to define and achieve their life goals.

CORE defines equity as each of us getting what we need to survive and succeed – access to opportunity, networks, resources, and support – based on where we are and where we want to go. Equity is the key that allows each of us to unlock our full potential.
We commit to affirming and celebrating racial, ethnic, gender, age, class, spiritual, national, regional, and personal identities within our organization and in the communities that we work with as a way to achieve equity. We build relationships with everyone in a way that empowers their voice, honors their values, and celebrates their strengths.
We commit to working toward our mission in a way that centers social justice and equity at all levels of our work. We are accountable to upholding this belief in how we practice our values, and ensuring that it is reflected throughout CORE’s staff and board, and our operations and governance. We know that this is a work in progress and we as an organization commit ourselves to this ongoing work.
We are a team of kid-advocates, driven to create change and build an infrastructure for success to meet the needs of Southern Nevada’s students. Each of us has our own “why” and approach to our work – take some time to meet the team!
For all things CORE, join our community today or follow us on social media now.
