“Single Stop and ECC share the common goal of empowering students to complete their postsecondary education and achieving their personal and professional goals thereafter. Students may receive benefits that are pivotal to keeping them in college,” he says.
Through a unique combination of technology, consulting, and institutional training, ECC’s staff will provide students with information about which federal, state, or local benefits they are eligible to receive and will guide students through the process of applying for benefits.
