America's Promise Alliance Community Convention 2016
Making the Promise of College Real
Young people today need more than a high school education to be on a path toward adult success. There are too many barriers that keep young people from pursuing and persisting in postsecondary education options. This session provided examples of community efforts that are strengthening postsecondary pathways and providing comprehensive supports to inspire and enable students to pursue and complete a college education. Participants learned about a national effort to build broad public support to make the first two years of community college as universal, free and accessible as high school.
