The Morgan State University INCLUDES project will build on an existing regional partnership of four Historically Black Colleges and Universities that are working together to improve STEM outcomes for middle school minority male students that are local to Morgan State in Baltimore, North Carolina A&T in Greensboro, Jackson State in Mississippi, and Kentucky State in Frankfort. Additional partners include SRI International, the National CARES Mentoring Network, and the Verizon Foundation. Using the collective impact-style approaches such as planning and implementing a Network Improvement Community (NIC), developing a shared agenda and implementing mutually reinforcing activities, these partners will address two common goals: (1) Broaden the participation of underrepresented minority males in science and engineering through educational experiences that prepare them for careers in STEM fields; and (2) Create a Network Improvement Community focused on STEM achievement in minority males. Program elements include high-quality instruction in STEM content, mentoring, and professional development. The project will expand to include eight additional partners (six HBCUs and two Hispanic-Serving Institutions) and schools and districts in communities local to their campuses. The INCLUDES pilot will help scale innovations that target impacting minorities in STEM. The project will develop STEM learning pathways for middle school minority males by harnessing the collective impact of 12 university partners, local K-12 schools and districts with which they partner, and surrounding community organizations and businesses with a vested interest in achieving common goals. Products will include a roadmap for addressing the problem through a Network Improvement Community, a website that will contribute to the knowledge base regarding effective strategies for enhancing STEM educational opportunities for minority males, and common metrics, assessments, and shared measurement systems that will be used to measure the collective impact of the Network Improvement Community.

摩根州立大学（Morgan State University）包括项目，将建立在四所历史上的黑人学院和大学的现有区域伙伴关系的基础上，这些大学正在共同努力，以改善在北卡罗来纳州巴尔的摩的摩根州立大学的中学少数族裔男性学生的茎，格林斯伯勒的摩根州立大学，密西西比州的杰克逊州，密西西比州和肯塔基州的肯塔基州。其他合作伙伴包括SRI International，国家关怀指导网络和Verizon基金会。这些合作伙伴使用集体影响式的方法，例如计划和实施网络改善社区（NIC），制定共同的议程并实施相互加强的活动，将解决两个共同的目标：（1）通过代表性不足的少数族裔男性通过教育经验扩大了教育经验，以使他们在STEM领域的职业生涯做好准备； （2）创建一个关注少数民族男性STEM成就的网络改进社区。 程序元素包括STEM内容，指导和专业发展的高质量指导。该项目将扩展到包括八个其他合作伙伴（六个HBCU和两个西班牙裔服务机构）以及校园当地社区的学校和地区。包括飞行员将有助于扩展针对影响少数族裔的创新。该项目将通过利用与他们合作的12个大学合作伙伴，当地的K-12学校和地区以及周围社区组织和企业对实现共同目标的既得兴趣的围绕共同目标和企业的集体影响，来为中学少数男性开发STEM学习途径。产品将包括通过网络改进社区解决该问题的路线图，该网站将有助于知识库，以了解有效的策略，以增强少数民族男性的STEM教育机会，以及将用于衡量网络改善社区的集体影响的常见指标，评估和共享测量系统。
