As an intervention to mitigate the challenges both groups face, Minority Center for Participation and Empowerment proposes to offer social behavior change (SBC) and Pathway services.

 

The social behavior change program is designed to encourage individuals or communities to adopt new, healthier, or more desirable behaviors while reducing or eliminating harmful or undesirable behaviors. These programs are typically used in public health, education, environmental conservation, and various social initiatives.

The pathway program, often referred to as a "pathway to success" or "career pathway program," is designed to help individuals, often students or job seekers, progress toward their educational or career goals by offering a structured and supportive path.

 

To provide visible mentorship to schools located in minority communities and provide support to mitigate existing or evolving challenges that immigrant and African American students face in their schools, neighborhoods, and homes.

To help create safe environments or safe spaces in which immigrant students can become adjusted or familiarized to acquire education and self- actualization in much more appreciable ways. 

​
