In 2022, The Community of Automotive Professionals, a Texas 501(c)3 non-profit dedicated to full-circle improvement of the automotive industry, selected a group of (5) student applicants from various Borderland Texas communities to participate in a new program called the Borderlands Invitational.

​

 

The program is a one-of-a-kind opportunity that allows these students to obtain their auto mechanic certification in the greater San Antonio area while helping them get set up for success.

​

 

Working alongside Young Life with the support of Southern Careers Institute (SCI), the selected students will enter the SCI program, which includes educational and onsite training in the automotive industry. As part of the program, the students will receive tuition, required tools, housing, life coaching, financial planning, and continued mentorship.
