Rocking the Boat uses traditional wooden boat building and on-water education to allow high school age youth to develop into empowered and responsible adults. Through these mediums, Rocking the Boat empowers South Bronx students to deal with everyday realities that are often not addressed at home or in school. Four levels of community and youth development programs operate during the fall and spring academic semesters and over the summer. Together, the programs directly serve over 2,000 students and community members drawn from a range of New York City public high schools and neighborhoods, the majority being in the South Bronx. Rocking the Boat teaches, challenges, nurtures, and motivates, providing the tools to transition into the next phase of life. Kids don't just build boats at Rocking the Boat, boats build kids. The end result is students ready for college. Please visit their web site and help support their goals.
