Across the country, states are responding to local labor market needs and student interest by authorizing community colleges to offer bachelor’s degree programs. Our team has been researching and curating stories about how these programs are impacting people and communities. Here, we offer a toolkit on community college baccalaureates and its place in the higher education landscape for advocates to use when speaking with policy and decision makers.

We are grateful to Lumina Foundation for their generous support of this work, especially Holly Zanville. We also appreciate the partnership of Sameer Gadkaree and the Joyce Foundation. The support and advice of our ¹ú²úÊÓƵ colleagues made this report possible, including Mary Alice McCarthy, Debra Bragg, Riker Pasterkiewicz, Julie Brosnan, and Fabio Murgia.
