Check out the archived presentations from Illinois community colleges at the Special Populations Academy on May 23. Adult Education might find these presentations helpful. Make sure to work closely with your Disabilities Office if you are housed at a community college.

I was particularly interested in COD's report on using academic coaches to help at-risk students with the skills they need to succeed in college and help them navigate the entire post-secondary education experience. I served as a coach in this capacity and it was a great experience. Being a first time college student in my family, I certainly relied on many informal mentors to get me through the process.
