Level UP Through the Power of Your Voice
Together, we must unapologetically lead progressive and unwavering initiatives to prioritize racial equity through increased access to higher education and support for underserved communities while in college.
Black learner success = stronger communities. When we all have access to relevant, quality, affordable postsecondary education, our whole community benefits.
Across the country, community college enrollment among Black learners has dropped 44% since 2011.
Of those who do enroll, 1 in 5 Black learners feel discriminated against in postsecondary schools.
We must champion opportunities that prioritize racial equity. It's critical to continue dismantling past barriers and ensuring opportunities for all.
Now, more than ever, it is imperative for leaders and community members to intensify their commitment to this national initiative.
