Black Educational Achievement Movement (BEAM)

Black Educational Achievement Movement (BEAM) works to interrupt the generational cycles of struggle for educational attainment and socioeconomic success for Black youth and adults in Oregon. Our flagship event is the Black Student Success Summit.

We accomplish this by offering individuals and group training’s, workshops, classes and seminars focused on positive identity development, high academic standard and professionals who are trained in the common core development.

 We accomplish our multi-generational community building by offering annual summits, individual and group training’s, collaborative workshops, integrated classes and seminars focused on positive identity development, high academic standard and professionals who are trained in the common core development.

We are also committed to assisting Oregon’s educational agencies in their efforts to reform policies and practices that promote disparities between ethnic groups. We are driven by the belief that a high quality education is the best way to improve the odds for every individual.
