FOCUS AREAS

number 1

21st Century Skills/Growth Mindset

21st-century skills like critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration, along with a growth mindset, are developed through our hands-on, project-based curriculum. These skills and attitudes are also integrated into our basketball program, aligning with our classroom learning approach.

number 2

Social Emotional Learning

Inspire Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) We help students develop emotional awareness, healthy relationships, and responsible decision-making by integrating SEL into daily activities like the "weather report," team-building exercises, and our basketball program.

number 3

Health and Wellness

Promote Health and Wellness as Lifelong Habits. We support students’ physical, mental, and emotional well-being through sports, education, and mentorship, encouraging healthy lifestyles and personal growth. Our basketball activities help students build lifelong healthy habits.

number 4

Service to Others

Foster Service to Others is the act of giving time, effort, and resources to support and uplift individuals or communities in need. We aim to deepen student engagement in service through volunteer opportunities, problem-solving initiatives, and real-world applications.

What an incredible night at our 6th Annual Gala & Awards. Thank you to our donors, partners, families, and students for showing up and supporting our mission. Your belief in our work fuels new opportunities and brighter futures for the young people we serve.

This week at Dever, students explored the value of Respect starting with how we show it to ourselves.Through lessons on hygiene, rest, and daily routines, we talked about how taking care of your body is a simple but powerful form of self-respect. “You can take care of your body, and it will low-key show you respect in turn.” — SZA #3PointFoundation #BostonYouth #Respect #WellnessInAction #SelfCare #MindfulLiving #YouthEmpowerment
