Mission and Vision
Our Mission
The Centers for Transformation, Retention, Equity and Empowerment create culturally engaging community spaces to validate and elevate our students’ identities, lived experiences, and cultural wealth. We use cultural and identity-based retention frameworks to support the empowerment of our students as they actualize their educational, personal, and career goals.
Our Vision
We empower ALL to flourish through transformational and culturally responsible practices that foster an inclusive educational environment that values the whole self by celebrating intersecting experiences; honoring ancestral creativity; building community; and growing critical consciousness.
