Grant Overview

Mississippi's rural-urban divide is a significant challenge for education and economic development, with many rural areas facing limited access to resources and opportunities. Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) in the state, such as those in Jackson, play a critical role in addressing these disparities. The HBCU Student Mentorship Program aims to connect students from these institutions with high school students, promoting college readiness and academic achievement. The program's focus on peer support, academic guidance, and career planning workshops will help to inspire and prepare students for post-secondary education. Unlike neighboring states, Mississippi's high proportion of HBCUs and their importance in the state's educational landscape make this type of initiative particularly relevant.
