The Role of Community Colleges in Promoting Immigrant Integration

Date: 
10/21/2008
Time: 
8:30 – 10:00 AM ET
Location: 
Grantmakers for Education Annual Conference, Baltimore, Maryland
Event Description: 

Across the country, community colleges are serving increasingly high numbers of low-income immigrants who rely on them for English classes, adult basic education and vocational education opportunities.  As such, they are well positioned to play a critical role in helping immigrants increase educational attainment, improve economic mobility and become full, contributing members of society. Join us for the release of a hot-off-the-press grantmakers' handbook and learn about the most recent research, best practices, innovative models and recommendations to guide philanthropic investment in this area.
