Program Description
Kids and UConn Bridging Education (KUBE): This collaboration with the Puerto Rican / Latin American Cultural Center is a multicultural mentoring program that builds literacy and educational aspirations for local middle school students while also helping them develop social skills. KUBE achieves this by pairing the middle school students with AsACC and PRLACC students who provide them with one-on-one mentorship to help them reach their full potential. KUBE meets monthly for cultural events and field trips.
