A three-year-old organization, the Dropout Academy, is partnering with Roxbury Community College (RCC) in an effort aimed at helping students of color “drop out” of circumstances where “limiting thoughts” get in the way of a fulfilling college experience. Founded by its CEO, Kurt Faustin, the academy focuses on mental health issues and the educational aspects of emotional intelligence. Last fall, he brought his organization to the college level by joining with RCC to set up a six-week mental health development workshop that would concentrate on increasing student retention rates. Faustin and Robin Shahid-Bellot, the community college’s dean of students, created the workshop after Faustin reached out last spring. Together, Bellot says, they wanted to come up with another campus resource that “meets students where they are.”
