Riverside City College received a $60,000 grant from the California College Pathways Fund to support high school students with foster care experience participating in Dual Enrollment courses. The Foster Youth Dual Enrollment Program aims to create a seamless transition for foster youth from high school to college by offering the opportunity to enroll in college courses while still in high school. The program is designed to provide these students with the academic and personal support needed to succeed in their educational pursuits.

 

The Foster Youth Dual Enrollment Program has made a significant impact with many students successfully completing college courses and gaining valuable academic experience. The continuation of this program, made possible by the California College Pathways Fund, ensures that the College can keep making a positive difference in the lives of foster youth in the community.
