Wraparound supports are essential to address retention obstacles disadvantaged college students face. The TEAMS Outreach Center partners with college and community groups to help student’s access resources to sustain enrollment, connecting students to individualized support services and resources they need to overcome obstacles affecting their success. The goal of the project is to increase the capacity of support services for disadvantaged students. This project will enhance current processes, help to create new processes, as well as increase fundraising and volunteer recruiting initiatives for the TEAMS Outreach Center.
