Central Washington University Board of Trustees October 20, 2023
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY – Student Engagement and Success (SES) Federal Grant Programs Representatives from five federal grant programs located in the division of Student Engagement Success, the High School Equivalency Program (HEP), the College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) and two Educational Opportunity Center (EOC) programs, and Student Support Services (SSS) will be presenting on the impact of these programs on their target populations, as well as their collaborations on and off campus. Three of these five programs are located off campus and within communities heavily populated by the underserved demographic to whom these programs outreach and serve. HEP, CAMP, EOC and SSS are programs that value access, equity, and belonging and contribute to the retention and graduation rates at CWU. Their staff are highly skilled and diverse; the majority of whom are bilingual and biliterate. Through intentional outreach and holistic support services, these programs have experienced much success and some challenges over the years. Oftentimes, programs that exist on soft monies are seen as peripheral and excluded; however, at CWU these programs are very much embedded in the fabric of the institution and an essential part of the division of Student Engagement and Success.
