We are Minds Matter Twin Cities
Minds Matter students are ambitious, accomplished, and determined to get to and through college. We believe in the power and potential of our students. Though structural & socioeconomic forces have historically deprived them of opportunities that prepare them for higher education, MMTC students courageously defy the odds. Together, we provide unique perspectives, skills, resources, and connections that bridge the gap and give our students the tolls to reach their full potential.
