It’s A Family Affair
Students from the Tougaloo College 21st
Century Community Learning Center
(21stCCLC) at Capital City Alternative
School serve as peer counselors for Tougaloo
College SWAGG Academy which serves 2nd
and 3rd grade male students from Brown
and Walton Elementary Schools.
Young men from the Tougaloo College
SWAGG Academy perform their first act of
“gentlemanly greatness” during the
Thanksgiving program in November 2013.
The young men received red and blues
pocket squares for their achievement.
Tougaloo students serve as mentors for
SWAGG Academy and 21stCCLC students
through the Family Life Center’s CHANGE Me
mentorship program which creates an
intergenerational mentor setting for each
student.
