About the Project
The THRIVE Project at Adelanto High School is a comprehensive support program for foster youth that addresses academic progress, emotional well-being, and access to basic necessities. Rooted in the values of Trust, Hope, Resilience, Independence, Value, and Empowerment, the program provides a dedicated safe space, academic help, after-school activities, and resources like food, hygiene supplies, and clothing.
THRIVE also connects students with mental health providers, social workers, and educational rights advocates, while offering opportunities such as college field trips, career exploration, and graduation support. The initiative strengthens partnerships with families, staff, and community organizations to create a consistent, caring network.
