Many school districts do not start preparing students and  \nfamilies for this process until 11th or 12th grade. This is often too late for students to identify opportunities to explore and identify opportunities to align available educational opportunities with their career interests and aspirations. Students seeking to return to school after leaving high school often lack any real support – persons they can connect with or tools they can intuitively use-to help them navigate the system. While the state has made record investments in higher education, students and families need better information and support on the ground to increase awareness and uptake of the resources that the state provides .  \n|  |\n| --- |\n| 57% |\n\n57% of Michigan parents believe postsecondary education is too expensive.  \nReconnect Navigators serve the 49% of Michigan adults over the age of 25 without a degree or skilled certificate of value.  \nMichigan Student Aid Staff  \nserve 705 school districts.  \nSimple processes for accessing and retaining aid can increase a program’s impact.  \nPrograms that clearly and proactively communicate to students are easier to access.  \n What needs to be done?   \nThe state should encourage MiLEAP to create and disseminate more proactive and in-depth postsecondary resources for all ages, better align the state navigators with community needs, and help build partnerships between the department, districts, postsecondary institutions, and statewide/community organizations (i.e. local banks, college access networks, Michigan Works!, United  \nWays, etc.) to create a multigenerational,  \npostsecondary and workforce preparation services network.  \n What are the potential impacts?   \nStudents of all ages will be able to find assistance and resources to access, pay for, and succeed in a postsecondary program within their community.  \nCommunities will be able to draw on all the available services and resources to provide families with a onestop-shop for basic needs, postsecondary planning, and workforce opportunities.","cbCaiadGG1eaYtWQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiadGG1eaYtWQ","pdf",70992,"English","# Policy Goal\n## What’s the investment?\n## Why is this important?\n## What needs to be done?\n## What are the potential impacts?","[{\"question\":\"What is the main policy goal of Improve College Prep for All Ages?\",\"answer\":\"Increase support and opportunities for proactive, in-depth postsecondary exposure and success advising for individuals of all ages.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the proposed investment and where will it be used?\",\"answer\":\"A $10 million investment would expand MiLEAP capacity to support school districts and communities and create grants for partnership-driven one-stop shops.\"},{\"question\":\"What potential impacts does the policy expect for students and communities?\",\"answer\":\"Students can more easily access, pay for, and succeed in local postsecondary programs, while communities can offer coordinated services for basic needs, planning, and workforce opportunities.\"}]","Improve College Prep for All Ages - Investment and Impact Policy Goal | PDF",1792054015]
