today's world where opportunities abound, many people remain marginalized and unable to reach their full potential. Underdevelopment of their languages is one of the reasons. How is this the case? Many people can't get access to basic knowledge and services because these are not available in a language they understand. They must use a language other than their mother tongue to learn new life skills, develop literacy, and even grow in faith. The pressure to shift language puts a person's identity and culture under attack. All of these issues stand in the way of human flourishing.</p><h1>Our mission and vision</h1><p>Pike Center for Integrative Scholarship wants language to be an instrument of human flourishing, as we believe our Creator means it to be. For this reason, we build capacity for language development in an effort to provide equitable development and social justice to countless marginalized groups through the worldwide movement of language development and Bible translation that our namesake, Kenneth L. Pike, helped to establish. Pike Center builds capacity by developing scholars and growing the needed bodies of knowledge. Our vision is to inspire sustained growth of the knowledge and people that will propel language development for generations to come.</p> </div> </div></div><div class="sqs-block button-block sqs-block-button" data-block-type="53" id="block-yui_3_17_2_33_1469722138348_11265"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class="sqs-block-button-container sqs-block-button-container--center" data-animation-role="button" data-alignment="center" data-button-size="medium" data-button-type="primary" > <a href="/about" class="sqs-block-button-element--medium sqs-button-element--primary sqs-block-button-element" > Learn More </a> </div> </div></div></div><div class="col sqs-col-5 span-5"><div class="row sqs-row"><div class="col sqs-col-1 span-1"><div class="sqs-block spacer-block sqs-block-spacer sized vsize-1" data-block-type="21" id="block-yui_3_17_2_33_1469722138348_8445"><div class="sqs-block-content"> </div></div></div><div class="col sqs-col-4 span-4"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image" data-block-type="5" id="block-yui_3_17_2_52_1508595128358_13399"><div class="sqs-block-content"> <div class=" image-block-outer-wrapper layout-caption-below design-layout-inline " data-test="image-block-inline-outer-wrapper" > <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " style="max-width:1224px;" > <div class="image-block-wrapper" data-animation-role="image" data-animation-override > <div class="sqs-image-shape-container-element has-aspect-ratio " style=" position: relative; padding-bottom:80.39215850830078%; overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black); " > <img data-stretch="false" data-src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5979e3dcbf629a07f4d5399e/1510182619487-ML09YZN0265HFIL1Z4ZN/ken_pike_2.jpg" data-image="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5979e3dcbf629a07f4d5399e/1510182619487-ML09YZN0265HFIL1Z4ZN/ken_pike_2.jpg" data-image-dimensions="1224x984" data-image-focal-point="0.5,0.5" alt="Kenneth L.
