Partners

It takes a network to launch a scholar

AOP's model runs on partnerships. We build formal, youth-protection-first relationships across NYC to give scholars real opportunities.

Schools

MOUs covering student referrals, program space, and FERPA-compliant transcript data-sharing — with future 21st Century Community Learning Center partnership in view.

Employers

Signed work-based learning agreements for worksite tours, job shadows, informational interviews, and paid internships — with clear supervision and youth-protection terms.

Colleges

Campus-visit agreements, admissions-office relationships, and opportunity-program (HEOP/EOP/SEEK) liaison contacts that open real pathways for our scholars.

Community & City Programs

Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP) providers, NYC Parks facility agreements, and community organizations that extend our reach.

Founding support

Building our founding coalition

We're actively developing relationships with in-kind, foundation, and civic partners who share our commitment to expanding access for NYC's student-athletes. Partner logos and named commitments will be featured here as agreements are signed.
