Welcome to MP Associates

MP Associates is dedicated to building the capacity of individuals, organizations, and communities to effectively address structural racism and better understand privilege issues for building a just and inclusive society. We work to identify systemic issues, to increase individuals’ knowledge and skills, and to support processes for people to work together across and within racial and ethnic groups.

We work in partnership with individuals, communities, and organizations to:

• Develop and plan programs
• Provide consultation and assessment services for community initiatives to promote racial equity
• Build capacity and provide technical assistance
• Design and facilitate meetings and training workshops
• Conduct research, literature searches, and identify best practices
• Develop tools and training manuals
• Develop curriculum and train-the-trainer programs
• Evaluate and assess programs

 

“There are many persons ready to do what is right because in their hearts they know it is right. But they hesitate, waiting for the other fellow [person] to make the first move – and he [or she], in turn, waits for you. The minute a person whose word means a great deal dares to take the open hearted and courageous way, many others will follow.”
~Marion Anderson, Contralto, performed at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in 1939
