The College Promise Campaign

The College Promise Campaign (CPC) is a national nonpartisan higher education initiative housed at Civic Nation, building a nationwide movement to make a college degree or a postsecondary certificate more affordable and attainable for hardworking students, beginning in America’s community colleges. College Promise programs cover tuition and fees and provide support to help students succeed. These programs have helped tens of thousands of students succeed. As this movement grows, it will help millions more by removing barriers to higher education and providing critical academic and social support, leading to a better prepared workforce and a more equitable society. The Executive Assistant to the CEO position is integral to the Campaign’s success and the growth of the College Promise movement underway in more than 300 communities and 45 states.

The Campaign builds widespread public understanding about the value of a quality higher education, especially in community colleges and their sister colleges and universities, locally, regionally and statewide. We serve as the prominent public voice and champion for this work. CPC creates impact by:

• Providing community, state, and regional leaders the necessary tools, information, and networks to offer high-quality College Promise programs for their residents;
• Mobilizing leaders across diverse communities and interests to build and sustain high-quality College Promise programs; and
• Raising widespread awareness to increase support for College Promise programs.
