Reception for EOP Resilient Scholars 2013
On Wednesday April 17, 2013, the Educational Opportunity Programs (EOP) proudly celebrated the graduation of five remarkable students in its Resilient Scholars Program (RSP).
The mission of RSP is to empower former foster youth through higher education. Without support services, less than 1% of all foster youth who attend a four year university graduate from college, yet studies suggest that programs such as RSP can raise that graduation rate to 20%.
The Graduates:
Orlando Roybal - BA, Sociology
Sondra Sandford - BA, Sociology
Destiny Melody Johnson - BA, Sociology
