EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES

Brightstone clients have typically received their high school diploma; however if not, they are encouraged to complete high school through a few available options. We also provide academic coaching support to continue their education at a post-secondary level at one of our three options listed below. Participants are encouraged to maintain an academic schedule that will set them up for success, even if this means only taking one or two classes at a time. This is a beneficial and intentional process to encourage time management, study skills, and self-discipline needed to succeed academically at this level.

Brightstone is located in an area ideally suited to offer a variety of academic options for young adults. The University of North Georgia and Brenau University offers a wide variety of classes for young adults seeking a college degree. Lanier Technical College is also conveniently located in North Georgia and offers an array of certificate coursework, vocational classes, trade classes and associate degrees. Tutoring or special accomodations can also be provided to the client based on need.
