What is Catapult?

  • Catapult is a cutting-edge, AI-powered learning platform built to equip foster and other vulnerable teens with the skills they need to thrive in their careers. American Access Institute ensures that these students gain access to Catapult’s strategically designed curriculum, which integrates trauma-informed support with real-world career readiness.
  • Mentors access valuable data to maximize program effectiveness.
  • Students explore ‘The Big Four' pathways other than college (which is also covered but not the focus of this platform). These trainings include cost of attendance, average annual income, and schooling requirements with hotlinks.
