ABOUT THE PROGRAM
California’s San Joaquin Valley has the lowest college enrollment and completion rates in the state. Yet with its youthful, diverse, growing population; expanding economy; and robust regional networks, it could be on the verge of dramatic improvements. How can institutions, educators, and policymakers expand support for college-going pathways in the valley? Join us for a presentation of new findings and a panel discussion with local leaders.
This research and event are supported with funding from College Futures Foundation, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and the Sutton Family Fund.
