The N The Numbers Podcast Episode 9: Dr. Deborah Sipe and PDXBridge at MHCC

Welcome to the latest episode of the N The Numbers Podcast (formally The Real STEAMy Podcast) with host Jarvez Hall of the East Metro STEAM Partnership. Today we welcome a special guest, Dr. Deborah Sipe, the PDX Bridge Coordinator at Mt. Hood Community College. We talk about the PDX Bridge program and resources available for young people ages 16 - 24 experiencing foster care, homelessness, or adjudication.

 

PDX Bridge at Mount Hood Community College is a transition program that helps youth find a pathway to college and a career. First-generation, low-income students receive financial assistance and the support of a college success coach as they start taking college classes with a community of peers. Priority is given to youth who have experienced foster care, homelessness, or adjudication. The best part? The program is completely free for its students.
