Launched in March 2022, the Navigator Education Support program helps students from marginalized communities access educational and career opportunities. Through partnerships with United Way of Thurston County, South Puget Sound Community College, and local school districts, Navigators provide personalized support with FAFSA/WASFA applications, scholarships, and career paths. With the program expanding to Tumwater School District in Fall 2024, more first-gen, LGBTQIA+, and students of color will receive vital guidance.
