Kheprw Institute (KI)

In the area of Community Empowerment, the Kheprw Institute has gone from monthly forums featuring African-American male youth to: a variety of forums/discussion groups that now have panels made up of youth, academics and/or leaders from around the country. Discussing critical issues that affect our community, they encourage open, honest dialogue that increases awareness, helps establish relationships, and builds community engagement. KI works with national and local neighborhood/ community organizations and individuals to address the needs to have voice in setting directions and goals for their quality of life and implement grassroots solutions to community challenges.
