Coordination among KCP Competitive Grant Programs. Programs can coordinate services by jointly designing and implementing strategies that include shared goals, objectives, and resources.
Coordination between KCP Competitive Grant Programs and MI GEAR UP. Opportunities for cross program collaboration include guidance, mentoring and academic support, summer visitation programs, on-campus math and science academies, and financial aid and postsecondary application workshops.
