College affordability has reached a crisis point with large numbers of students struggling to meet their basic needs. With basic needs centers proliferating across California’s postsecondary institutions, the need for collaboration across offices, in particular with financial aid, is paramount.
This webinar will present the findings from a report from John Burton Advocates for Youth highlighting opportunities for enhanced collaboration and coordination across financial aid and basic needs offices to better support college students in accessing the resources they need to succeed.
In addition to reviewing the report recommendations, the webinar will feature representatives from LA Pierce College and Stanislaus State who will share about innovative approaches to collaboration taking place at their campuses.
