The summit will feature:
• KnowHow2GO campaign launch and College Bound scholarship program

• Breakout sessions and peer learning opportunities
• Networking with statewide and regional partners

Ultimately, our vision is to create a statewide network around college access — and we need your participation.

• A statewide network of college access providers, advocates and youth-serving organizations will help more students realize their college aspirations.
• KnowHow2GO Washington presents a timely opportunity to realize this common vision and create a shared agenda around college readiness and access.
