Get Involved

BLCI parents participate in workshops where they learn to access resources for their families. Seminars cover methods for becoming involved at their children’s school, school enrolment options, and how to prepare for higher education. We offer parents the resources, training, and support to become fully involved in their children’s education. Parent involvement is necessary for college success.

Volunteer

Volunteering at a Barrio Logan College Institute is a great way to help teach young people valuable life lessons, guide in their quest for higher education and learn something about yourself in return.

Working with youth today means a brighter future for everyone. 

When you volunteer at a Barrio Logan College Institute, you can make a difference in the lives of youth and give back to your community. Within the first few minutes of meeting our students and staff, you know you’re in a special place. Filled with the desire to learn and energy of young people wanting a better future and friendly, caring professionals, BLCI is a positive and hopeful environment. Whether you help with homework, share your experience, or teach about a subject, you’ll have the opportunity to build healthy relationships with young people eager for adult guidance, and have a positive impact on their lives. In turn, you will find that spending time with these young people has a positive impact on you as well.
