BackgroundMission
Where we've been, and where we're going:
Over
the past decade, Ohio's network of college access practitioners and
supporters has been united, supported, and expanded through the efforts
of the statewide coordination of OCAN. Moving forward, Ohio's
college access network will be characterized and guided by strong and effective collaboration across the network, ownership of and active roles
among members and the OCAN staff in Cleveland and Columbus, in the shared
mission to increase college attainment and success in Ohio.
The priorities of OCAN's headquarters are to:
1)
actively listen to the student position and provide a platform for the
student voice to be heard, both through their own voices and the
advocacy of OCAN
2) provide the tools and partnerships necessary to
track and articulate the statistical linkage between college access
services and workforce and economic outcomes; and
3) identify, promote
and utilize initiatives that are effective in streamlining and
supporting workforce entry, ultimately to create economic opportunity
through college completion.
