The vision for the Community and Family Services department is to enhance the capacity and functions of the GED and Job Readiness components. The vision requires that the GED program be able to adjust to a changing target population, from one that served typical older returning students to an untraditional model that actively recruits and engages younger participants; due to the community's increasing dropout rates.
