Mission Statement
Degrees of Change prepares diverse, homegrown leaders to succeed in college and career in order to build more vibrant and equitable communities.
About This Cause
Degrees of Change partners with community organizations, high schools, colleges and employers to provide cohort-based leadership training, college success support, and career development programming to underrepresented students and graduates who desire to lead and serve their home communities. As both a national backbone organization and local, direct service provider in Tacoma-Seattle, we provide and utilize research-based programming, cutting-edge evaluation and data tools, and innovative operational systems and technical assistance to support all aspects of our integrated programs. In addition, we contribute through leadership and technology to collective efforts to transform the systems that create and reinforce inequity for our participants and communities. Act Six is a leadership development and college scholarship program that brings together diverse, multicultural cadres of emerging leaders who want to use their college education to make a difference on campus and in their communities at home. Seed Internships invests in the vibrant future of the Puget Sound by identifying exceptional diverse college students and recent grads, and matching them with top, local employers. Seed Teachers offers diverse Pierce and King County students a cohort-based, debt-free path to their college degree and teacher certification—all leading to a high-impact teaching job back in their home community.
