Our Impact

Proven Results, Lasting Change

At Cleveland SCORES, the verdict has been the same for more than two decades: our program really works. Through a unique tri-curricular approach that blends poetry, soccer, and service, we help students grow stronger in body, mind, and character.

 

SCORES’s award-winning program improves children’s academic performance and commitment to school, increases physical fitness and teamwork skills, and empowers them to become confident leaders in their communities.

 

As a leading youth development program in Cleveland, we continuously measure outcomes to ensure our programming remains impactful, equitable, and evidence-based—because every student deserves the opportunity to write, play, and achieve their full potential.
