A REAL ROADMAP to Success

Leader | Coach | Consultant | Founder | Speaker

7mo Edited

On the daily, we’re inundated with negative narratives and news stories about our youth. Many would describe teenage Black boys in America as one of the most vulnerable populations due to systemic racism, socioeconomic disparities, disproportionate involvement in the criminal justice system, and barriers to education and opportunities. Today, we want to take a moment to celebrate a beacon of positivity emanating from Tech Valley Shuttle. We are committed to all underemployed and underserved individuals having success in the workforce! We’re not merely offering jobs; but we are fostering career exploration, nurturing personal development, and equipping people with the tools and information for workplace success while supporting their personal journey. Through our partnership with Venessa Colόn Workforce Solutions Now and the implementation of my “Roadmap To Success” curriculum, we’re truly revolutionizing the game! Join us in celebrating the journey of our teenage youth as they stride confidently towards becoming successful men! Hit that like or love button and then share to help spread the inspiration and positivity that our youth embody! Visit www.TrentGriffinBraaf.com to learn more about the roadmap to success program and schedule your free consultation. #EmpoweringYouth #BuildingFutures #RoadmapToSuccess #WorkForceSolutionsNow #TechValleyShuttle

"I was a first-generation college student without a traditional family support system. This topic is so important to me. For me, advocating for diversity, equity and inclusion is about access and equity in opportunity. Much of my work focuses on helping underrepresented students both discover opportunities available to them AND feel like they are worthy of accessing them. My passion is primarily in working with young people to see that Michigan Tech is a place where they can create their own identity and journey regardless of any barriers they perceive. So many people were influential in showing me how and why it’s important to advocate. My first professional mentor was Dar (Slade) Morris, but I think I have learned the most from the many students I have worked with over the years, especially underrepresented and people of color, from youth to graduate students. Their stories are always an opportunity to learn from and demonstrate compassion for the human experience.” –Cassy Tefft de Muñoz, Executive Director for the Center for Educational Outreach In keeping with the 2024 #WomensHistoryMonth National Women’s History Alliance theme, "Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion,” we asked some of our most outstanding equity advancers for their perspectives on the theme as it applies to our work here at Tech. We asked why it’s important to advocate and who helped to influence their efforts.

At #BlackTechSaturdays, we know breaking into tech starts with access—access to devices, the internet, education, and a community that believes in you. Yesterday, we gave 500 laptops to entrepreneurs, families, and children who needed them most. It wasn’t just a giveaway—it was a hand up, empowering our community to get further, faster, together. This was the largest laptop giveaway AT&T or Human-I-T has done, made possible by partners like David Lewis and Jennifer Jambor, MBA , who joined us in filling a critical gap. The impact was immediate. One parent, with tears in their eyes, said, “This laptop is going to change everything for my kids.” Our "Amplified Intelligence" panel, led by Hajj Flemings, featured DaTrice Clark Crosstown connection on digital access, Paris Plain Ultrium on AI for vehicle maintenance, and Achsha Jones TripSlip on democratizing field trips. Together, we’re building America’s premier Black tech ecosystem, rooted in Detroit’s resilience. We’re just getting started—so much more to come. “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’” — Martin Luther King Jr. Michigan Central Newlab Gabe Middleton Johnnie Turnage Alexa Turnage City of Detroit You Can In Michigan #BlackTechSaturdays #keepgoing #togetherwecan #strongertogether #thefutureisbright #blackexcellence #blacklove #blackjoy #diversityintech #generationalwealth #detroit #blackintech #womenintech #Latinxintech #Bridgethedivide #ClosetheGap #creativeeconomy #youcaninmichigan
