Project Change
Project Change is designed to Open doors, Remove barriers, and Create Community and serve as academic, emotional, and social support for student members. The program connects formerly incarcerated and system-impacted students to academic, personal and financial, professional, and wellness services at Skyline College as well as to community resources.
Project Change provides students with your own dedicated Counselor to assist you in your journey as well as a voice on campus and a social network of students, staff, and faculty who understand many of the experiences and concerns that system impacted students have in going to college, and who want you to succeed. Project Change also provides students with financial incentives, book support, transportation assistance, and more.
Incarceration impacts more than just those who serve time in correctional facilities. Family, friends, and whole communities are often heavily affected, or system impacted, by incarceration in the United States. Project Change is open to anyone currently enrolled at Skyline College who identifies as a student impacted by incarceration.
