The Public Works Group, a nonprofit organization, is made up of three divisions, Public Works, Learning Works Charter School and Community Works. Public Works specializing in educational, public and non-profit agency support. We tailor our services to meet each client’s needs by providing evaluation services, technical assistance, instructional design and training, strategic planning, and support in meeting legislative or grant-funding reporting requirements.

Learning Works Charter School was established in 2008 and provides a personalized, rigorous academic program and relevant life skills to traditionally underserved, at-risk students in grades 9-12 who have withdrawn or are in danger of withdrawing from mainstream education without attaining a high school diploma. LW addresses the needs in our community by offering a program to give these disengaged students an educational choice designed to meet their specific needs, distinct from the traditional programs that have not served them well.  Our model combines both the need for academic intervention and support, as well as acknowledges that this population requires wrap around, social support services.

Through our Community Works initiative we have expertise working with both sides of the equation—schools and families—to create an optimal education system that effectively serves students academically and socially. A variety of community based afterschool program operate under this initiative.
