TeamWorks

TeamWorks places groups of IUPUI students in community service positions in local non-profits and government agencies.  College students complete a variety of projects, depending on the needs of the agency and the interests of the students (e.g., planning annual fundraisers, supporting mentoring programs, managing volunteers).  College students also participate in bi-weekly team meetings at the site to enhance their personal and professional development.

TeamWorks Testimony:

With a full time staff of six providing individual mentoring, leadership training, community service opportunities, and family and academic support for nearly 100 high school students, the collaboration with IUPUI TeamWorks students was a vital component to our success. Nearly 50 percent of our students have a 3.0 GPA or higher and all have been promoted to the next grade level. We plan to continue this relationship in the 2008-2009 school year and even increase the number of work study students helping us to improve graduation rates and cultivate leaders one Scholar at a time.
