Summary

The Promotor Pathway Program provided case management, mentorship, advocacy, and referral services, in addition to services provided by the Latin American Youth Center (LAYC), to youth disconnected from school and work who were at risk of poor outcomes, with the goal of improving education, employment, and health outcomes.

Participants in the Promotor Pathway Program were paired with a “Promotor” who provided intensive, long-term case management services, mentorship, and advocacy. Promotors also provided referrals to services internal and external to the LAYC, based on participants’ needs. All Promotor Pathway Program participants had access to standard LAYC services during this intervention. Promotor Pathway Program services were typically provided for 15 months. This intervention was delivered at existing LAYC sites located in Washington, DC, and Langley Park, Riverdale, and Silver Spring, MD. Participants were youth ages 14 to 24 from households with low incomes in areas with large populations of color. Youth were recruited from the four LAYC sites where the Promotor Pathway Program was administered, or were referred to LAYC by schools, government agencies, or nonprofits.
