It is the mission of the HBCU Rising to address the underrepresentation of people of color in scientific fields in our country, by providing engaging opportunities for economically vulnerable students to learn more about STEM subjects in a culturally grounded, experiential, fun and accessible way. The HBCU Rising aims to fill the pipeline for unfilled STEM-related jobs, for which the representation of African American participation is by far the lowest of any ethnic or racial group. Our program addresses these challenges, while at the same time supporting economically vulnerable college students, who are fairly compensated as mentors and provided workforce-development training to better prepare them for 21st-century careers. 301527 University For ParentsA community-wide and driven collaboration with the Morehouse School of Medicines Satcher Health Institute, the United Way of Greater Atlanta and the Urban League of Greater Atlanta, the model program engages over 70 local partners in order to extend workforce, psychosocial, academic and consumer support and direction to impoverished parents through wrap-around services. We immediately address the emotional, social and financial challenges many of our families and communities still struggle with, which directly affects the level at which they can support their own children, whom we also serve. Like our other programs, the University for Parents is a curricula-based education and healing initiative that addresses the wellness of the adults who care for our children. We focus on the building blocks for a healthy, high-quality life, emphasizing parenting and conflict-resolution skills, critical to strengthening the fabric of our communities and families. Our diverse network of community partners delivers addiction treatment, literacy and computer-skills training, as well as a host of comprehensive wrap-around social services, a hallmark of the CARES model, in order to prepare them to succeed in family-sustaining jobs and entrepreneurial efforts. Through our culturally anchored curriculum, coupled with skills-building workshop series and intimate, group-mentoring gatheringsWellness Mentoring Circleswe are reinforcing our ecosystem approach to this community-restoring work with a laser focus on loosening the vicious grip of inter-generational Black poverty. 227730 The Rising: Elevating Education, Expectations and Self-Esteem: ChicagoThe Rising is a consciousness-changing, healing and academic support program designed to override the systemic inequities that affect Black children living in high-poverty situations the most, by creating a web of culturally anchored support services, working through schools, local leadership and other community-based organizations.

OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Affiliate Development and Mentor Recruitment and Training: The National CARES Mentoring Movement began its work as a mentor-recruitment agency devoted to seeking and deploying to schools and youth-support organizations the most needed and difficult-to-find volunteersAfrican American men and women. We soon learned from our recruits that few mentoring organizations we connected them with offered the grounding, skills and support needed to serve adequately children suffering from the effects of poverty. Before our trainings, many mentors felt that they had an incomplete understanding of how the effects of poverty were impacting children's lives, and many also felt that they themselves needed support and undergirding in order to advance and secure young, fragile lives. In response, CARES formed a 60-person, multidisciplinary, intergenerational Brain Trust that worked in teams for a year to develop a roadmap to wellness, self-love, self-sufficiency and, ultimately, healthy communities. Contributors to the manual included scholars and academics, advocates and activists, artists, researchers, journalists, youth-development experts, doctors and other wellness professionals. Today, their remarkable collaboration provides the guiding philosophical framework for all our programmatic work: the 149-page manual, A New Way Forward: Healing What's Hurting Black America.Following the wisdom of A New Way Forward, our seminal program is Affiliate Development. Its core activity is recruiting, training and deploying caring and able mentors. Through monthly group teleconferences, weekly one-on-one support calls and annual all-Affiliate gatherings, National CARES strengthens the leadership capacity of our network of 58 CARES Mentor Recruitment Affiliates throughout the nationour volunteer army. Through the development of shared principles, protocols and language, our leaders are able to effectively, and with deep cultural competency, recruit adults to serve as mentors and deploy them to schools and youth-support organizations around the country that are desperate for Black volunteers and that use the traditional one-to-one model of mentoring. In some cities, our local leaders are also recruiting and training mentors to work in CARES-created, group mentoring programs.

OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 7: The Rising: Elevating Education, Expectations and Self-Esteem: NewarkNational CARES is building a replicable model in preparation for scaling The Rising initiative throughout our 58-city network. Following our strategic plan, we have invested resources to assess and build capacity throughout our affiliate network, outlined future capacity-building activities necessary for efficient program roll-out, and are working to secure dedicated replication funding while also seeking support to continue programming in the three cities where The Rising was piloted, evaluated and is succeeding.
