LEXINGTON, KY - Bluegrass Community and Technical College (BCTC) Associate Vice President (AVP)
Tania Crawford Gross will participate virtually on a national panel sponsored by the
Institute for Higher Education Policy (IHEP) on Friday, Sept. 10, 12 p.m. to discuss
ways to address barriers to college completion and targeted equity-focused interventions.

The United States continues to navigate the impacts of the global pandemic, higher
education has a major role to play in driving an economic recovery and addressing
social and economic inequities, which have worsened with the disproportionate impact
on Black, Latinx, Indigenous, and underrepresented AAPI communities, and low-income
communities.

In recognition of the transformative impact of higher education on students, families,
communities, the workforce and economy, the Institute for Higher Education Policy (IHEP), in partnership with The Institute for College Access & Success (TICAS), Results for America, UnidosUS and Third Way is hosting a virtual briefing calling for a once-in-a-generation investment in the
College Completion Fund (CCF).

Interested parties can register for the webinar at ihep.org/CCF.
