Reimagining the Role of Post Secondary Education and Its Impact on Poverty
Abstract
As unemployed Americans prepare to re-enter the job market and compete for jobs, what impact will postsecondary education have in a world that is forever changed by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic? How employers, job seekers, and policymakers work to reimagine a competitive American workforce will heavily rely on postsecondary policies, practices, and programs. Communities living in poverty are at greater risk of falling deeper into economic disparity. Access to postsecondary supports is key for communities living in poverty being able to overcome the impacts of the pandemic. The following article provides examples of effective postsecondary education programs and practices throughout the Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey region.
