Partnerships & Initiatives

CSF’s impact is amplified by partnering with schools, school districts, state agencies and other organizations committed to educational attainment. We recognize that we are stronger together and work to continually learn, share our knowledge and harness the power of our networks and communities.

Washington College Access Network (WCAN)

CSF staff lead the Washington College Access Network (WCAN) to raise awareness of the College Bound Scholarship and to increase FAFSA/WASFA completion rates. We provide training, tools, resources and technical assistance to school staff and community-based practitioners tailored to fit each individual school, district and community.

We give counselors and school staff the tools and information they need to promote a college-going culture and provide their students with access to all financial aid opportunities.

WCAN is led in partnership with the OSPI.

Washington Passport Network

Washington Passport Network is a statewide collective impact initiative committed to supporting students from foster care, unaccompanied homeless youth, and the adult professionals they rely on. We provide information, knowledge and tools to improve practices and student outcomes.

If you are a professional who supports students from foster care or unaccompanied homeless youth in gaining access to, persisting within, or completing post- secondary education in Washington state, we consider you a member of the Washington Passport Network.

We empower members of the Washington Passport Network by arming them with information, knowledge, and tools to improve their student-support practices and student outcomes. We facilitate networking and relationship-building among members of the Washington Passport Network so they can best serve students in their post-secondary journey.

College Success Foundation staff lead the Washington Passport Network in partnership with the Washington Student Achievement Council (WSAC).
