For our inaugural year, we are focusing on the Pleasant Grove area and have recruited students that live in Southeast Dallas.
This part of town is particularly special to Primos founder, Alicia Serrato, as she grew up in Pleasant Grove.
By focusing on a specific geographical area we are able to provide central meeting locations that are easily accessible to mentees and their families.
