SPECIAL POPULATIONS

Special Populations includes youth from: foster care, juvenile justice, refugee populations and students who are experiencing homelessness. Our goal is to connect with these students from their agencies or non-profit, and ensure they successfully transition and are retained at WSU. We also work to connect students to additional funding streams for scholarships and financial support.
