Supporting students from a dream, to a direction, to a destination.

The mission of the Get Focused, Stay Focused nonprofit is to support every student from a dream, to a direction, to a destination. We do this by promoting quality implementation of the GFSF career curriculum in partner K12 schools, colleges, and adult schools so that every student develops an informed career choice and 10-year plan for the future.

We support students by:
  • Providing wrap-around services to partner schools
  • Assisting new teachers with professional learning communities
  • Supplying teachers with regional labor market information on high-wage, high-demand careers
  • Training teachers to become career mentors
  • Helping schools scale from a stand-alone career class in 9th grade to annual career planning
  • Facilitating early college credit for students in the high school career classes
  • Evaluating Get Focused, Stay Focused program student outcomes
  • Acting as the fiscal agent on workforce training grant projects
Your donation changes lives!

Your donation is incredibly valuable and life changing. Every year, thousands of students graduate high school not knowing what their next steps should be, and many adults need to re-think their careers and go in a different direction. Your donation helps us to help them.

Ninth grader Jesse entered our program without a dream for his future. After taking the career class, he said: “I learned who I want to be, what I want to do, and most importantly how differently I see life after this class.”
