Angela Davis and Adrienne Diercks talk about making connections with students to expand their horizons and encourage them to think big about their purpose in life. Data we've compiled show the share of Minnesota students who feel connected to a caring non-family adult has fallen in recent years.

Listen to what can happen when one person decides to make a difference. On Minnesota Public Radio, I talked to Adrienne Diercks, the founder of Project Success. 30 years ago she started a nonprofit in Minnesota to help students develop a sense of purpose by exposing them to live theater performances, camping trips, college tours and workshops. Today the program is still going strong and even expanding. Listen to our conversation on MPR News and the phone calls we received from past participants.
