This training will help individuals (academic advisors, staff, and faculty) recognize students who may qualify for the Horizon Scholars Program and understand how to refer them for support. Students who have experienced foster care or related systems may not always disclose this information during the admissions process. As a result, they can be overlooked for support services that are designed to help them succeed. This workshop outlines key indicators to be aware of and explains how to connect students to the Horizon Scholars Program.

Presenters:

  • Micah Reed, Manager for Access and Student Success Initiatives, Horizon Scholars Program
  • Tamika Germany
  • MariSol Little, Associate Director of Care and Resource Support

Register to attend via Zoom.
