California Promise: Pathways to Student Success

On August 30, 2017, CCPP staff, in partnership with the California Community College Chancellor’s Office, Los Rios Community College District, and the Community College League of California, hosted a second annual College Promise convening. More than 400 participants attended the day-long event, including representatives from California community colleges and California state university campuses; community-based programs in California; and College Promise program partners and funders. The presentations and workshops emphasized the importance of cross-sector collaboration for structural and financial sustainability of College Promise programs, strategies to align College Promise programs with student support structures, and intersegmental transitions to ensure student persistence and completion.
