Is a part of the Black Educational Achievement Movement organization (BEAM Village). BEAM Village is a program that is committed to helping youth by challenging the insistent disregard of Black student’s hopes, dreams, and achievements in both the public and private classrooms.
The program operates on the model of the “Sankofa Village”. The Sankofa, a “mythical African bird that moves forward while its head is turned backward toward a golden egg on its back”, in which the “egg here represents a treasure in the form of historical wisdom”.
BSTRONG Learning Hub will be located in a residential home of Noni Causey, the CEO of BEAM. The residential site of this program is a reflection of the program’s “change from within” approach to student success.
