Who We Are
The Educational Partnership Center at UC Santa Cruz is home to eight programs that support under resourced K-12 schools, their students, and their families across the Pajaro Valley, Monterey Bay, and Silicon Valley. In collaboration with campus, community, state, and national partners, we incorporate research-based strategies to help students access and succeed in college. We leverage each program’s expertise and services to maximize outcomes for local students, their families, and our community.
Our Vision
Every student will be prepared to access and succeed in college.
Our Mission
We build educational equity and create opportunities for socioeconomically disadvantaged students in the communities we serve by forging partnerships and empowering students with knowledge, tools, and support systems to access and succeed in college.
