Higher education for indigenous women in Mexico
Organization information
Centro de Compartimiento, A.C.
Location: Juchitan, Mexico
Summary
Many young women in Mexico do not reach higher levels of education because their families cannot afford room and board, and there are no middle, high school or universities near their communities. We are a residential program that helps indigenous young women with free room and board, so they have access to education while providing them with personal and developmental courses. Students give back to the community through ongoing service projects including tutoring local grade school children
