| Initiative Title | Develop and implement a strategy to connect with local governmental and planning organizations to establish remedial course outreach centers in selected areas of Orange County |
|---|
| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
|---|
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Orange County has high impact areas in Middletown, Newburgh and Port Jervis needing remedial educational programs given a high drop out rate in all three cities. Communities have few if any viable remedial or workforce programs for adults. If we offer programs that serve to increase functional literacy rates and assist students with earning their high school diplomas we will increase the College's visibility in this community. This will result in a pathway to the College's educational and workforce courses of study. We will need to establish remedial outreach centers in selected areas.
|
|---|
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | -Current status of few or no remedial educational services for residents of this high impact community
-No generation of state aid for offering remedial educational classes
-Status Quo of low visibility for the College and no established pathway to enrollment in College programs.
