ACT-SO – a youth program under the administrative guidance of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).  ACT-SO is a yearlong enrichment program designed to encourage high academic and cultural achievement among underserved minority high school students.

As we continue to follow guidance from public health officials and government agencies, we want to ensure our scholars and volunteers have the pertinent information during this unprecedented time.

Help mobilize the adult community for the promotion of academic and artistic excellence. Take a stand. Answer the call whether it is to participate, volunteer or donate. Find out all the ways on how you can make a real difference.

ACT-SO was founded in 1977 to recognize and reward African-American high school students.  Today, ACT-SO welcomes and celebrates students from all racial backgrounds and ethnicities.

“It is our greatest desire to help you prepare for personal, professional, and financial success.”
