Children of the Night WOW

Free Online High School Equivalency Program

Children of the Night WOW (With Out Walls) offers young people in shelters, drop in centers and outreach programs throughout America FREE on-line high school equivalency assessments and tutoring, funding for High School Equivalency testing. We receive clients from the Goodwill of California, donated Backpage.com advertising, Social Workers, Domestic Violence Centers, Drop in Centers, Friends, Hotlines, Maternity Homes, Rehabilitation Centers and other shelters.

In April of 2016 we partnered with a trafficking shelter in the Dominican Republic to provide their young students with English and Math tutoring.  Thanks to your help, our program continues to grow!

Between January 1 and July 11, 2016, Children of the Night WOW provided 6009 free online high school equivalency services to 346 clients in 19 United States and 1 foreign country.

   257 were Female
   87 were Male and
   2 were Transgender.
   30% of our referrals were from Goodwill

Online tutoring represented 93% of our calls and 19 of the 346 (5%) students successfully passed the High School Equivalency Exam – 15% of the number of students who completed High School Equivalency Assessments.
