The Opportunity by Design implementation guide equips postsecondary institutions with practical strategies to accommodate the complexities of students’ lives, with special attention to the experiences of adult students.
The practice recommendations are based on the work of Historically Black Community Colleges (HBCCs) and Predominantly Black Community Colleges (PBCCs) across the country – institutions that have historically bridged opportunity gaps and driven social mobility within communities that have long faced systemic barriers to accessing higher education.
