Project Description
In terms of creating a vibrant and inclusive student experience, the SAAB/B2B Initiative provides direct, intentional support for African-American males who are an historically underrepresented and underserved population at IUPUI and at other post-secondary institutions. This project will include additional financial resources and a graduate assistantship to help deliver holistic services and intentional support through providing direct personal and academic programming that address the unique developmental needs and experiences of all participating undergraduate African-American males. The programming will focus on creating individualized plans for success that recognize and affirm students' cultural identities and career aspirations. This project received Round I and Round II Welcoming Campus funding.
