| Abstract | The purpose of this study on intervention, conducted from a sociological perspective, is to advance a theoretical understanding of the complexities that impede as well as facilitate equitable access to key forms of institutional support for the disenfranchised. These complexities will be analyzed to identify counterstratification strategies. Purposefully, counter-stratification strategies are intentionally set in place to provide access to key forms of institutional support. In particular, these strategies are used as an intervention to provide access into key programs that are designed to provide low-income and first-generation Latina/o and minority students with access to greater institutional resources. Many of the complexities that impede equitable access require an in depth study to understand the deleterious effects that low socio economic status youth encounter in their daily lives. This study will examine how the outcome of such effects relate to institutional racism and segregation that are often mitigated within the context of the human development for minority youth growing up in low income and racially segregated environments (Stanton-Salazar, 2006). |
