College and Career Pathways where Talent and Opportunity Meet
About us
REACH is the college and career pathway for high-performing under-resourced students (HiPURS) at the nexus of companies and communities. Less like homework and more like a video game, REACH rewards students for interacting with mentors, accessing bite-size career content, and completing real life tasks in a vibrant virtual community.

This award is for every young person who’s ever felt like they didn’t belong. At the Chicago Innovation Awards, Brooke McKean stood in front of 700 people and shared: ‘None of us were supposed to be on that stage because we grew up in under-resourced communities. REACH Pathways envisions a world where young people from every zip code can lead and reach their dreams.’ Thank you Chicago Innovation for believing in us! This recognition is a celebration of creating access and opportunities for young leaders everywhere! 🙌 #reachpathways #edtech #impact #chicagoinnovation #innovation #tech #startup

I am so honored and proud that REACH Pathways was a Chicago Innovation Awards winner last night! I'm grateful to stand on the stage with our team and our Scholar Advisors (Sasha Peña, Kenneth Woodard, Brianna Marie Olivarez, Elaine Li, and Joey Liang) and we missed you very much Jeffery Beckham Jr. As I said in my remarks, none of us were supposed to be on that stage, because we grew up in under-resourced communities. REACH Pathways envisions a world where young people from every zip code can lead, and reach their dreams. This award is for every young person who ever felt like they didn't belong. On a personal note, it was a proud moment for me to speak in front of 700 people, just over 20 years after dropping my college speech class (the one and only class I ever dropped).

Happy National First-Generation College Celebration Day! Today, we honor the strength and resilience of all first-gen students! 🎉 Meet Claudia, one of our REACH advisors. Growing up as a first-gen student, she faced challenges finding resources and support to pursue higher education. That’s why Claudia is passionate about REACH, where she helps students access meaningful tools, guidance, and opportunities. With REACH’s support, she’s creating the pathways she once searched for, so no first-gen student has to navigate alone. #nationalfirstgenday #reachpathways #edtech #firstgen #imfirst
