Informational Workshop: Rising Scholars’ Early Implementation Efforts to Expand Higher Education Opportunities for Justice Involved Youth

CPOC is excited to welcome back representatives from the Rising Scholars Program to share an update on the early implementation efforts of community colleges. Rising Scholars representatives will share what is happening across the state to 1) increase community colleges’ ability to bring in-person instruction into juvenile detention facilities, 2) expand course selections overall for youth, 3) enhance transition efforts as youth return to the community as well as attend in-person courses, and 4) highlight bright spots of implementation.

Speakers:

  • Kellie Nadler – California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office Rising Scholars Network

  • Chelsea Esquibias – California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office Rising Scholars Network
