What We Do
A student in a PhD/EdD program with a traditional graduate-level advisor but you lack robust supports to connect both the academic & non-academic pieces that are important for career growth?
Our DEI-focused student success coaching, courses, and mentorship model helps you to navigate higher-ed spaces with more confidence & more resources. We also support you in growing a network of mentors. Find out more below.
A program administrator in a PWI that seeks to better serve graduate students through a DEI lens? We provide solutions that are open & inclusive to ALL, but that are designed to position Black & Brown students for success.
Could your graduate students benefit from mentors who share the same identity intersections and have expertise in their respective fields? We connect alumni of color with graduate students; and through these dynamic relationships, mentors expand their career knowledge and provide industry insights. Find out more below.
