Get College Ready Webinar – Sep 27

Posted by The Field Center for Children's Policy Practice & Research on September 19, 2023

About the Webinar

Every student who gets into college wants to graduate, but not everyone does. For students who have experienced foster care, access to resources, support and guidance is key to ensuring higher education success. Having mentored hundreds of students from pre-orientation to commencement, speaker Dr. Suzanna Richter hones in on the key skills students need to succeed in college and graduate—as well as efficient ways to practice them. This webinar discusses those skills, how to work on them, and introduces a new pilot program that provides 1-on-1 undergraduate preparation and guidance for the students with foster care experience who participate. The webinar is also a call to action, as anyone who went to college is a college mentor and can provide advice to students heading to, or who are in, an undergraduate program.

Date and Time: September 27, 2023, 1:00-2:00 PM
