JOIN THE MOVEMENT!
North Shore Community College is joining a call to action.
NSCC's RAP Experience program and services are designed as an achievement and retention
initiative to support and assist Black, Latino/a, and ESL students to succeed academically.
In doing so, we improve and increase academic persistence and graduation. We want
to partner with you to support your academic success, celebrate your achievements,
and empower you to RISE, ACHIEVE and PERSIST!
HEAR THE CALL TO ACTION!
During his speech introducing the My Brother’s Keeper (MBK) Initiative, President Barack Obama made a call to action to the country:
I have always believed that the single most important task we have as a nation is to make sure our young people go as far as their dreams and hard work will take them. It is the single most important thing we can do for our country’s future.

Rise. Persist. Achieve. Kick-Off Celebration!
Keynote Speaker Darius Peyton
Darius Peyton received his bachelor’s degree in Media Literacy and American history
from Wheelock College (now Boston University). Growing up in Amherst, MA, he first
discovered his passion for social justice when he noticed the disparities in the way
that he and people who look like him were treated. This led him to become a vocal
advocate for closing the gap.
