Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

In most major urban metropolitan areas, including Austin, Texas, many adolescent African-American males have tragically been relegated to a permanent underclass, surviving in a subculture of poverty, crime and drugs, and predatory, senseless street violence.

The causes of this national disgrace are complex and multi-dimensional.

African-American youth have been Ill-served and literally betrayed by an inadequate and at times, dysfunctional, public education system. Too often, African-American children are born to and raised primarily by teenage girls after engaging in unprotected sex with teenage boys, neither of whom are financially, socially or emotionally equipped to bear the burdens of parenthood. As a result, children born to these circumstances, along with their teenage parents, get trapped in a vicious cycle of poverty, financial despair and economic stagnation. Tragically, American prisons, jails, and juvenile detention centers are now home to millions of African-American males, many of whom have been incarcerated for preying upon and victimizing other African-American males.

My Project

I have requested school supply items and safety equipment for the interactive STEM activities being planned. We are planning to send students and parents home with projects and prizes, so I have requested a few STEM related items. Changing Expectations Corp will support the participating STEM teachers to provides small-group STEM presentations at the African-American Men and Boys Harvest Foundation conferences and at the African-American Youth Resource Center. The STEM teachers will provide 55 minute small-group learning activities, and resources will be provided to purchase materials to send students home with individual project kits on related STEM topics. Digital and face-to-face follow-up mentoring of under-served students will be provided.

The Harvest Foundation's recently developed African American Youth Resource Center STEM sessions are being planned for the coming school year as a response to the broad critical needs, often unmet, among several African American youth and families in this community.

AAMB Harvest Foundation and key community stakeholders have come together to build and deliver a high quality community-based system of support to minimize the local disparity of this demographic. Changing Expectations Corp will be a service provider of STEM education at the AAYRC.
