Richmond Promise Creates a Latino College-Going Culture

Richmond Promise inspires Latino and underrepresented students to explore earning a bachelor’s degree when they may not have considered college as an option. Executive Director Jessie Stewart and team members Jessica Rodriguez and Miguel Molina describe the student mentoring, Career Coffee Chats and near peer mentorship they provide to promote a college-going mindset and change the community culture. As part of the College Promise program, they describe hosting the 2019 National PromiseNet conference. https://richmondpromise.org/ https://www.collegepromise.org/ Available in English
