College Access Corps


Established in 2014, in partnership with Washington Campus Compact, the College Access Corps is grant funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). College Access Corps supports local economically disadvantaged youth to become engaged in their education, learn more about the post-secondary pathways, including application and financial aid processes, and become empowered to pursue the pathway of their choice. 

Having a post-secondary path is a critical tool to break the cycle of poverty and improve the health and welfare of low income children, their families and communities.  Many youth who have been labeled low-income, youth of color or first-generation youth lack the historical privilege and social capital to effectively prepare for and navigate a post-secondary pathway of their choice. Furthermore, low-income youth of color and first-generation youth also face institutional racism and growing educational opportunity gaps within primary and secondary educational institutions.
Meet Our 2019-2020 CAC Team
Annual Program Goals:
  • To recruit and train 500 college students to act as college access coaches that provide at least 15 hours of college access intervention to 4,500 ED K-12 youth.
  • To have at least 70% of participating ED K-12 youth report, through a pre- and post- survey, improvement in academic engagement, academic preparedness for post-secondary education, and knowledge about how to apply to and pay for post-secondary education.
  • To recruit 1,080 volunteers for National Days of Service and other community service events.​​
