Mr. Back has been interested in supporting the education of underprivileged youth for more than three decades.

The tutoring program was ultimately comprised of approximately seventy graduate students who supported at-risk elementary students in East Palo Alto, CA. One hundred percent of his Dreamer cohorts graduated from high school and the vast majority continued on to college.
