Shepherd Higher Education Consortium on PovertyOpenAccessPHL
The Shepherd Consortium focuses on providing a sustained education about U.S. poverty for undergraduate and professional students who will enter diverse professions: business, law, education, healthcare, and social services among them. SHECP believes that if more physicians, educators, businesspersons, non-profit and civic leaders, lawyers, social service and public policy professionals were better informed about poverty, that U.S. residents could unite in efforts to diminish it.
The SHECP program includes both classroom study and firsthand experience. The most prominent firsthand experience offers undergraduate and law students eight-weeks of fulltime work with an agency that addresses impoverished persons and communities through health and education, economic development, legal services, and social services. SHECP has supported interns from more than twenty schools to work in Camden and the Philadelphia area since 2009.
SHECP would like to expand its intern presence in Philadelphia and Camden and would like to speak to any institutions, foundations, corporations or other potential partners about support.
Please see the presentation here for additional information about the program’s role in Camden.
If interested in learning more, please let us know and we will put you in touch with the Washington & Lee Professor Harlan Beckley, Executive Director.

The document discusses creating pathways for Black and Latino individuals in the innovation economy. It notes two trends - the changing US economy and demographics. Data is presented showing Black and Latino individuals are underrepresented in computer science degrees, tech workers, and leadership compared to their percentage of the US population. The document calls for banishing excuses that Black and Latino talent cannot be found and outlines the need for startup/corporate partners and college connections to create opportunities in Philadelphia.
