On this episode of The Higher Ed shift, we sit down with Tina Fernandez, the Executive Director at Achieve Atlanta, whose vision is to make Atlanta a city where race and income no longer predict post-secondary success and upward mobility.
We discuss their mission to help Atlanta public school students access, afford, and earn post-secondary credentials and the results their organization has seen.
The discussion evolves into sharing specific ways to engage with students, build trusting relationships that help them see a path to college graduation, and reduce the traumatic nature of the funding journey for our low-income students.
Tune into this episode to learn more about Tina and her amazing work with Achieve Atlanta.
