The purpose of the Bridges to Success Mentor Program is to support, guide and encourage Citrus College students to achieve their academic goals. With the everyday struggles of work, family, and school, college students are often overwhelmed with responsibilities and are left without adequate support. The Bridges to Success Mentor Program will help students develop the tools necessary to set and achieve goals and overcome obstacles that inhibit their success in college and life.
Check out the Mentoring Program flyer.
