From Urban: “A consortium of South Carolina historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs), the Urban Institute, and businesses forged an innovative collaboration.

The program will empower students to gain meaningful paid work experience while they advance toward a degree, link employers to a diverse and often-overlooked pool of promising talent, and serve as an example throughout the workforce and education systems for bridging the gap between the classroom and workplace.”
