Kheprw Institute (KI) works to create a more just, equitable, human-centered world by nurturing youth and young adults to be leaders, critical thinkers, and doers who see the people in any community as the most valuable assets and are committed to working with community assets to bring about change that leads to empowered self-reliant and self-determining communities.

We believe the greatest resource in any community is its people. They possess talents, gifts, and abilities of enormous potential. However, this significant asset in marginalized communities is often limited or undervalued due to much of the people’s creativity, ingenuity, and time being directed at surviving. A more just, equitable, human-centered world is fundamental to providing everyone an environment where they have opportunities to bring forth the best within them, become self-actualized, and contribute their genius to bettering their community and the world.
