Office Hours: Partnering to Provide Equitable Access to Career Education Experiences

At American Student Assistance (ASA), we have long believed that the future isn’t something students have to wait for—it’s something they can start shaping today. But we know they can’t do it alone. ASA annually reaches more than 15 million young people through our programming, philanthropic support and strategic partnerships. Now, we seek to both widen and deepen our impact to ensure our highest need learners can explore careers as early as middle school, experiment through hands-on opportunities in high school, and transition to the postsecondary pathways that work for them. Grant seekers: If you are a state agency or local government, nonprofit organization, school district, intermediary or other stakeholder looking to advance the field of career readiness through research, systemic change, or provide direct services to youth, join our “Office Hours” to discuss our grant guidelines and opportunities. If you are interested in learning more about a strategic partnership with ASA, join us to discuss how we can further mutual growth objectives.

- Annie Duong, Director of Corporate Social Responsibility
- Jing Cox-Orrell, Philanthropy Program Manager
