MEEP is a volunteer activity operated by area educators and business partners, whose purpose is to provide a select group of central city youth with opportunities and exposure to different resources that will enable them to develop skills necessary for a successful future. Activities include encouraging young people to explore future possibilities through reading, as well as through experiential learning opportunities, such as job shadowing and college tours.
