The Harrington Foundation

	The Harrington Foundation was established in 2005 to enhance quality of living, and promote education and the advancement of career development, exploration, and planning for all ages worldwide. The Harrington Foundation supports the mission and goals of Kuder, Inc. (Kuder):
		*Mission: To raise student aspirations and to provide career options to students and adults through self-assessment and education.*
		*Goals:* Guide students and parents through successful 8th grade and post-high school transitions. Increase retention and graduation rates. Provide career planning guidance and development to last a lifetime.
	To increase the likelihood of career satisfaction and success, career planning and education should begin at a young age and continue with self-assessment and career development throughout one’s lifetime. The Harrington Foundation seeks to make such education, planning, and self-assessment possible by increasing awareness of career options and making available career development resources to those who might otherwise not have these opportunities.
