Culturally Affirming Learning
Culturally Affirming Learning
We designed a tailored approach to providing college, career, STEM pathway, and entrepreneurship advising to students of color in a culturally affirming masterclass setting with engaging group advising and discussions with diverse leaders in education, business, and STEM careers. Our students build the confidence and connections they need to develop their career pathways.
Cohort Model Advising
Culturally Affirming Learning
Cohort Model Advising
Students of color can often feel isolated as they try to figure out what they want to do after high school. Our students start their journey in with a diverse cohort of their peers led by an advisor and career coach. Their cohort will serve as their home base and crew as they explore and navigate their college and career options throughout their experience.
