Lawrence HERC
Lawrence HERC is a place to find out everything you need to know about how to go to college. The idea for HERC's started in 1999 when the Boston Education Collaborative (a ministry of the Emmanuel Gospel Center) formed a partnership with the Higher Education Information Center and began opening centers in churches that were located in underserved communities in eastern Massachusetts.
Lawrence HERC is open weekdays from 10am to 6:00pm or by appointment. We are located in the Northern Essex Community College Lawrence Extension Campus. We provide two college prep programs for high school juniors, "The Bridge" and for seniors, "Passport."
To make college and career information readily available to students and families in Lawrence to provide planning and guidance for students and families interested in the higher education process. To provide a safe, comfortable and accessible environment for students and families to visit.
