In order to demonstrate the viability of the model for supporting this population of students, KSP will perform direct support of students and professional development training activities for students and community college staff to support the development of skills and knowledge for students to persevere and succeed in postsecondary education and realize positive employment outcomes. The project builds on and continues research into evidence-based practices for skill development and strategies for supporting diverse student populations. KSP\u2019s goal is to expand model supports to each of the campuses of the University of Hawai\u2018i Community College (UHCC) system, resulting in improved access, retention, and program of study completion resulting in outcomes of quality employment and\/or admission to a four-year program of study. Project personnel will pursue participatory action research to ensure fidelity to the support framework and examine the various needs encountered by students at each UHCC site and the communities they support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Principal
