The Double Discovery Center (DDC) was founded at Columbia University by college students interested in working with and getting to know Harlem's youth. It is a not-for-profit youth service agency for low-income, first-generation college bound, middle and senior high school students living and attending school in New York City. By all statistical indicators, the youngsters that DDC serves are at risk of not completing high school or ever entering college. The Center offers academic, career, college, financial aid and personal development services year-round with the goal of increasing the students' rates of high school graduation, college entrance and college completion.
