This came in as an email to one of our

My name is Shameek Robinson and I am the Statewide Network Coordinator at the National College Access Network (NCAN – www.collegeaccess.org)

As a first generation college graduate, I’ve worked in college access over the past decade with underrepresented populations and communities. As a NACAC member, I’m reaching out to you to ask your help and participation as I continue that work with NCAN building college access networks in California and other Southwest states!

NCAN is holding four regional meetings over the next 6 weeks in different parts of the country to gather professionals from the arena of college access to discuss the topics of Policy, Advocacy, and Networking. More information can be found by visiting this website - http://www.collegeaccess.org/2011regional.aspx.

I am working on planning and attending two of the four meetings, and am specifically asking for your assistance and support with members in the southwest region for NCAN’s Albuquerque Regional meeting on April 6th. College access professionals from California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, are invited to attend.

In addition to inviting you to attend this particular event, I need your help to invite WACAC members to the regional meeting as well. Specifically, I am inviting you as a NACAC, WACAC, and College Board staff member, to NCAN’s Regional meeting in Albuquerque. I’m also requesting that you share this invitation with WACAC and it’s members.
