Citrus College Rising Scholars Program
The Citrus College Rising Scholars program assists students impacted by the justice system. We are here to help current and former justice-involved youth obtain access, retention and success in their college pathway at Citrus College.
Our goal is to provide unique services, individualized counseling, career information, community referrals, cultural activities and enrichment workshops, as well as academic and personal guidance, to help empower students on their educational journey to earning an associate degree, a career technical certificate, and/or transfer to a college or university. We are here to ensure you achieve your educational goals and feel supported along your way!
