National Kessler Scholars Collaborative
The Kessler Scholars Program at Brown University is part of the national Kessler Scholars Collaborative along with 15 other institutions.
“ This program has taught me to reframe my first-generation and low-income background as one I should be proud of declaring openly. It taught me that conversations about these identities should not be marked as off limits. I am now comfortable with talking about these identities that I have tried to hide away for so long. ”
