Community & Economic Development

Many HBCUs are in areas with lower wages and slower job growth. By focusing on producing high-earning graduates and fostering entrepreneurship, we aim to reduce student debt and boost economic growth. Our initiative promotes collaboration among industry, government, and communities to create and retain jobs while building a resilient, inclusive economy.
