Partners Achieving Success established as a Community Development Corporation 501(c) (3) officially launched services in 2008 to provide professional development to assist minorities to showcase talent, increase critical thinking, knowledge and skills to access workplace opportunities and career paths. Since that time, we have provided training and skills development to over 450 minority persons. Our platform allows individuals to collaborate, be exposed and work with corporate and government leaders.  Individuals have the opportunity to participate in advance leadership development to become ambassadors to provide information, engage in program delivery, research and assist peers.  Our platform includes workshops that are custom designed to support  five key  areas for self-capacity building, “Developing the Whole Person”; Leadership, Health and Financial Empowerment, Diversity/Inclusion and Entrepreneurship.

In support of program capacity building, sustainability and acquisition of needed resources, we collaborate and establish strategic partnerships with government, corporate and entrepreneurial entities and leaders.  We blend financial and in-kind resources to support program needs, diversified programs and role models to support overall program development.

Our mission is to assist emerging minority leaders to provide exposure and training to develop transferable skills, create opportunities and access.  Provide exposure to strategic thinking, workforce needs, entrepreneurship, and resource development to build self-capacity. Our goal is to develop the whole student/person; cultivate global-community citizens with diverse mindsets, commitment to accountability, achieve goals and performance excellence on and off the stage.
