College Persistence Program
Building Community. Growing Leaders.
Our College Persistence Program provides year-round support services to help our students persist in college and graduate. College Retention Counselors, along with College Coaches (who are current college students), provide support services to students including: on-campus office hours at colleges our students attend, summer programming to help students prepare for college, and group workshops on topics such as how to discuss concerns with professors, accessing academic assistance, financial literacy, resume writing and job readiness.
