Key people at Black Resource Center.
The Black Resource Center is a campus community facility providing academic support, mentoring, counseling, and leadership development services, based in La Jolla, California. Operating as a dedicated unit within the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion division of the university, the center primarily serves undergraduate and graduate students, alongside faculty, staff, and local community members. The facility functions within the broader UC San Diego educational ecosystem, featuring historical involvement from notable university figures such as Chancellor Pradeep K. Khosla and inaugural director Joi Mechelle Solomon. As a non-commercial higher education support entity, the organization operates without generating commercial revenue and does not publicly disclose specific operational metrics regarding its total user base, funding allocations, or internal employee count. The Black Resource Center was established in 2013 following sustained advocacy efforts by university students, alumni, and community supporters.
Black Resource Center most commonly refers to campus-based student support centers (not a private company or investment firm) that provide culturally centered services for Black/African and African Diaspora students; the Black Resource Center model is found at many U.S. colleges and universities such as UC San Diego, SDSU, UC Berkeley and others[3][2][7].
