 Why donate to Florida Campus Compact?
|
Florida Campus Compact is developing a statewide learning community dedicated to the study and promotion of peer advocacy and community engagement to improve retention rates at colleges. Florida is one of just three states, along with Ohio and Washington, in the nation chosen to participate in an innovative new pilot-project called Connect2Complete (C2C). A program of Campus Compact with funding from The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Connect2Complete will engage Pell-eligible students enrolled in developmental education courses and who experience significant barriers to obtaining postsecondary credentials. Through peer-to-peer advocacy and community engagement opportunities, students will be supported in their goals of achieving academic success and persistence towards credential completion and will be more engaged with their peers, the community college, and the broader community. Campus Compact will use data collected from the pilot sites to support the identification of essential elements necessary to codify a peer-to-peer model. Statewide learning communities coordinated by the Florida, Ohio, and Washington state offices, along with a national learning community organized by Campus Compact will support the development and dissemination of this knowledge in hopes to create a program that will continue for years and expand nationwide. | |||||
