A Better Chance (ABC) is a national program that recruits academically promising and motivated students from underserved communities and places them in high schools that nurture their talent. ABC in Darien currently has eight young female scholars who, during the school year, live in the ABC House on Tokeneke Road with Resident Directors and attend Darien High School.

All of our graduates have gone on to competitive four-year colleges including MIT, Amherst, Syracuse, George Washington University, UVA, UNC, Franklin & Marshall, and Cornell, among many others.
