Our Mission

The College Connections Project is dedicated to providing comprehensive college access services and guidance to residents of Manhattan and the Bronx as they explore their post-secondary and career options.

 

The CCP aims to inspire, motivate, and empower non-traditional adults to seek higher education.

 

We recognize that planning for college and the application process can be overwhelming. We believe the CCP's approach of helping each participant by focusing on their history, strengths, interests, and goals can not only help ease some of the uncertainty about the process but also make it fun and exciting. The CCP wants to ensure that our participants are equipped with the knowledge and confidence to advocate for themselves within their college communities.
