Our College & Career Guide is here for Spring 2020!

4/16/2020

 
3 MIN READ
This is a passion project of mine and I just published my guide yesterday! 

The OBJECTIVE of this Guide 
is to share resources, organizations, scholarships, and more that I am aware of thanks to the many generous advocates and social justice champions in my network. I want to provide a free service to help students and allies learn about local resources to help them navigate college, career, and life. Here you’ll also find opportunities to help youth discover and reflect on your personal needs for growth and healing.

 
This Guide was developed for youth residing in Santa Clara County and this is my passion project. The guide includes groups like AACI, APALI, Braven, Filipinx Mental Health Initiative - Solano, LEAD Filipino, Management Leadership for Tomorrow (MLT), Mental Health First Aid, San Jose State University, ScholarMatch, Silicon Valley Education Foundation, and YWCA Silicon Valley.

"Thank you to my mother Helena Curry who instilled in me a strong work ethic, grit, and drive and paved the way by showing me what it means to be a true grassroots community leader and social justice advocate."
Acknowledgments
 
I thank the partners of AdvancED Consulting, the Santa Clara County Commission on the Status of Women, the Santa Clara County Office of Women’s Policy, and the many local and statewide college, career, nonprofit, civic, and social justice advocates who shared contacts, made introductions, and dedicated time to provide all of the wonderful information listed in this guide.
 
A big shout out goes to Amparo Diaz, Annie Do, and Michael Nuñez, all AdvancED Consulting partners, who supported the design and organization of content in this guide. Shout out to Kyra Young who designed all of the affirmation stickers and other AdvancED graphics you see throughout this guide and the AdvancED website and social media.
 
Thank you to my partner (in life and career) Michael who supports me in all things and empowers me to be of service however I can as my authentic self.
