Description
Amarillo College's
Culture of Caring Poverty Initiative Summit
Join Amarillo College for a two- or three-day training summit over our award-winning Culture of Caring program. During this summit, your team will learn about poverty awareness and ways to overcome student barriers to poverty; how AC transformed our institution and increased our completion rates by double-digit gains; and develop an action plan to revolutionize your institution and its approach to helping students attain their educational dreams.
Days one and two will be packed with presentations, break-out sessions, development exercises, group activities, and Q&As about how Amarillo College created a Culture of Caring to address our students' needs.
The optional 3rd day of the session will be a poverty certification institute led by Dr. Donna Beegle of Communication Across Barriers.
In order to ensure the highest level of success in efforts to enact change once you've returned to your home institutions, we require that you bring a three-person team consisting of:
- one President or Vice President
- one faculty/staff member from your Student Affairs department
- one faculty/staff member from your Academic Affairs department
