The ABLE Vision


Adolescents Building Literacy through Expression-A.B.L.E. is designed to enrich and enhance the visual, reading, writing, mathematical, scientific, and historical literacy of students ages 11-20. We aim to achieve this goal by engaging middle and high school students in a wide-range of learning activities. All of our programs encourage students to reflect, respond, and resolve questions that shape their learning experiences inside and outside of school.

Our out-of -school and afterschool programs currently include the following projects:

1. "Black, Brown, and White in the 'Chocolate' City: Being a Teenager in the Nation's Capital

2. The Algebra Project/Algebra in Middle Schools

3. Love Supreme: Adolescent Health and Identity Development

4. Lost in the City: The Literature, Language, and Legacy of Washington, DC

5. Spectacular Vernacular: Hip-Hop Culture and the Art of Expression

6. The Meaning of Freedom: Public History and Civic Engagement

7. Science for Poets: Astronomy and Physics in the After School Universe

8. The Hosea Project: Building Character/Making Choices

9. ABLE Visions: Adolescents on Film, Adolescents in Society

10. Middle Passages: Transforming Moments in the Lives of Adolescents.
