“During our work with SUNY WCC, we were impressed by the impact MSFCP had on student financial health and their academic pursuits. It was too good to be contained at just one school.

So together with SUNY WCC and NCWE, the program was replicated at other institutions across rural, inner city and suburban communities and achieved similar results,” said Jeanique Riche-Druses, Northeast Region Executive for Global Philanthropy at JPMorganChase. “We couldn’t be more pleased with the launch of the new organization, MSFCP.

One MSFCP student paid off two credit cards, built an emergency savings fund, and opted to stay in school at WCC within three months of joining the coaching program.

"Across the nation, colleges are forging powerful public-private partnerships to support their students and address workforce and community needs. We must elevate successful models like MSFCP and other practitioner-driven innovations” said Kate Kinder, Executive Director of the National Council for Workforce Education (NCWE). “By identifying and incubating these local solutions, we can scale their impact nationally.

Investing in partnerships and peer learning is crucial to empower communities and propel college and career pathways that offer economic prosperity."
