Sac City College - Re-Emerging Scholars

The Re-Emerging Scholars Program provides meaningful intervention in the lives of the formerly incarcerated through educational attainment, pro-social peer networking, direct services, mentoring, as well as personal, professional, and emotional development. Our program supports new students looking to take steps toward a new path. Once enrolled in the college, students will receive a needs assessment and be supported toward their academic goals. Students will be directed toward classes to support personal, educational, and professional development. In our two-semester Re-Emerging Scholars Learning Community program, students will receive check-ins from faculty, staff, and peer mentors for early intervention and connection to services as needed. At the conclusion of the two-semester program, students will have completed most of their general education units, built a pathway into an academic and/or career goal, and established connections to employers and community internships, as well as the personal and professional skills needed to be successful in their future endeavors.
