SSB Bridge Program

This year we are proud to announce the SSB/Princeton University Partnership. This Spring SSB teamed up with Princeton University upperclassmen Sarah Peteraff, Shaun Leimback, and Chris Merrick to offer students from the WInbrook Housing Projects (White Plains NY), Greenburg, and New Rochelle a free 5 week SAT Prep course at Princeton University and the Theodore Young Community Center in Greenburg.

Anti Mis-Education Curriculum

The SSB Anti Mis-Education workshops offer a real world curricula with a concentration on social/education and economic justice issues.

Get Off the Block!

One of the most effective, paradigm shifting components of the SSB program is the "Get off the Block" feature. It is designed to counter the isolating nature of social, education and economic injustice, by providing at risk students exposure to normative and non normative mainstream environments, locales and experiences.
