REAL Skills Network is an after school program at the Family Partnership Center in Poughkeepsie, New York. With the leadership of Tree Arrington, elementary-aged students receive tutoring and mentoring from older students from the local middle and high schools and colleges, allowing for a long-term community of support to develop. Over time, students who go through the programs tend to do better in school and graduate and attend college at significantly higher rates compared to the general school population.
