Today, on our 27th anniversary, we’re proud to introduce EXP’s updated mission statement:

✨ EXP empowers youth to confidently step into tomorrow’s workforce by connecting students with real-world experiences through industry and education partnerships, mentorship, and early-career opportunities. ✨

At EXP, we believe every young person deserves the opportunity to discover their potential and confidently pursue a meaningful future.

Since our founding on June 8, 1999, by the former Los Angeles Harbor Commissioner Carol Rowen and a passionate group of founding members, EXP has connected students to hands-on learning experiences that inspire confidence, expand opportunity, and bridge the gap between education and career.

Our heart is always in the harbor with our eyes towards the future.

As the world of work continues to evolve through rapid technological change, emerging industries, and shifting career pathways, students need more than career awareness alone. They need real-world experiences, mentorship, industry connections, and access to opportunities that help them navigate what comes next.

This updated mission reflects the heart of EXP’s work and Carol's vision to harness the power of industry, education, and community to impact youth and change lives. It sharpens our focus and reinforces our commitment to preparing students not only for their first job but for long-term success in a rapidly changing workforce.

It also serves as the foundation for our Unlocking Tomorrow 2030 Strategic Plan, which outlines how EXP will continue expanding access to career-connected learning, mentorship, internships, and industry partnerships across our regions.

This next chapter for EXP is about more than growth. It’s about ensuring students have the relationships, experiences, and support systems they need to thrive in tomorrow’s workforce.

Thank you for believing in our students and supporting this mission.

Together, we are unlocking tomorrow.
