Sherri Brooks is back with our latest #BehindTheData! This week, we're delving into how we're engaging and retaining a crucial part of our community – young Black men (male-identifying participants who identify as Black/African American). Our engagement with young Black men showed that their average number of mentoring sessions was 17% lower than their counterparts, and retention into senior year significantly lagged. ‼️There's room for improvement‼️ This year, we're doubling down on efforts to not just recruit but also ensure young Black men stay and thrive in Summer Search. Our action plan includes: ✅ Conducting focus groups with young Black men to directly address their needs and improve engagement. ✅ Tailoring mentorship and support to increase retention rates, especially through critical transition years. ✅ Enhancing our programming to better meet the unique challenges and opportunities our young Black men face. At Summer Search, our commitment to young Black men goes beyond just numbers. It's about ensuring every participant feels seen, supported, and empowered through every phase of their journey with us. Next week, Sherri will examine how Summer Searchers are thriving! But first, check out this week’s video and blog. https://lnkd.in/esZGS6ZD #SummerSearch #SummerSearcherMade #SummerSearchersHaveNoCeilings #mondaymotivation #BlackHistoryMonth #BlackFutures #YouthDevelopment

Cieara Swainston Davis, Boise, Idaho I stumbled into public service almost by accident. When I interviewed with the Idaho Transportation Department, I was the youngest candidate, had no degree, and very little formal training experience. The hiring panel saw my skills and determination, and I was hired as the District Trainer. I continue finding motivation through serving others. In my current role at the Association Of Idaho Cities I help public servants across the state build capacity to better serve their communities. Seeing our programs' impact on communities, leaders, and constituents has been the greatest motivator. Now I can't imagine doing anything else - I work tirelessly engaging the next generation of Idaho leaders. One my career highlights has been working to create the nation's first apprenticeship program for city clerks, managers, and treasurers. As a STAR - a worker skilled through alternative routes - I’m proud to contribute to a program that opens opportunities for others like me who don’t have a degree but are eager to learn on the job. The hope for a better, more inclusive Idaho inspires me to help others see their potential. I strongly believe in people's power and engaging the next generation. I envision more diversity in public service and hope to inspire future leaders to hone skills, believe in themselves, and be the change. As a STAR, I've proven you can still be successful and impactful in public service without a degree. I've had the honor of sharing my story, hopefully inspiring others to take pride in the unique skills life experience provides. The political climate here can be difficult as a young LGBTQ+ woman. At times, I'm tempted to leave. But as a native Idahoan, I feel responsible to stay and 'fight the good fight.' If diverse voices like mine leave, how will change happen? I'm constantly inspired by the dedicated public servants around me, waking up daily to face adversity while doing their best with limited resources to improve our state. While the journey hasn't been easy, I ended up exactly where I was meant to be. I'd tell my younger self: “Trust that you are wildly capable and deserving, despite not having that degree. Your experiences make you meaningful.” Opportunity@Work / Tear The Paper Ceiling #humansofpublicservice #STARsinPublicService #government #GovPossible

As we celebrate Pride Month, it's important to remember that acceptance and equality are values we should celebrate every day, especially for our college-bound teens. Creating an environment of love, support, and inclusion not only enhances their lives but also fosters a sense of belonging as they prepare to go off to college. Together, let's continue to champion diversity and authenticity. #PrideMonth #CollegeBoundAdvising #CollegeAdmissions #Classof2024 #Classof2025 #Classof2026

Many Gen Z consumers are set to vote for the first time in this year's presidential election. However, a report from The Wall Street Journal suggests that they are highly disillusioned with leadership due to the tough challenges they face in their future. At Collage Group, we recognize the importance of building resonance with Gen Z, a generation of game changers under pressure. Their decisions, whether it be voting or shopping, are governed by the importance they place on gender, identity, and impact. To learn more about how we can better connect with this influential generation, visit: https://bit.ly/3Pmlcji #GenZ #Elections2020 #Leadership #culturalintelligence #culturalfluency
