GO Centers aspire to help students see pathways to careers and college. They are physical spaces in schools and other locations, equipped with computers and overseen by school staff. Students visit the Go Centers and research career opportunities, college options, and financial aid. Students are assisted by mentors from higher education institutions and from the community.

Since 2006, the Fort Worth Chamber has employed staff to provide oversight and technical assistance to GO Centers which now exist in all 13 of the traditional high schools and three alternative campuses in the Fort Worth ISD.

Since 2006, more than 37,000 students have utilized the FWISD GO Centers, averaging over 7400 students annually. We have also helped other ISDs in and around Tarrant County.

Results from these meetings are still being seen, the primary one being the growth of the GO Centers in community and faith-based settings. In addition to the campus and community GO Centers, students have access to a Mobile GO Center hosted by Tarrant County College.
