Description
Pioneered by the Annie E. Casey Foundation, the Center for Working Families approach integrates services for community college students in three areas: employment and career services, income and work supports, and financial coaching and asset building. MDC coordinates the national learning network of the 10 participating community colleges. Attendees will emerge with a framework for delivering key services and financial support to low-income students using a convenient and integrated approach.
