Abstract | The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of the Latino Educational Equity Project (LEEP), a brief intervention designed to enhance college retention by increasing social awareness and skills for Latino students at three, predominately White universities in the Pacific Northwest. Participants were 40 students who completed the intervention and 41 students in a no-treatment control condition. Results of MANCOVA and ANCOVA analyses demonstrated partial success for the program with LEEP participants demonstrating significantly improved social adjustment to college and critical consciousness development. Implications are discussed. (As Provided). |
