Special Populations

Our purpose is to assist students with particular barriers to enroll in and successfully complete their technical courses at Lee College. We work especially with technical/vocational students who may experience difficulty due to academic or economic levels, especially single parents and displaced homemakers.

We offer child care and other assistance to eligible technical/vocational students.  We also offer registration and enrollment assistance, financial aid application assistance, and academic and personal counseling. 

The Special Populations office coordinates Project Leeway, provides Job Development and offers supportive services for students.

We have created a clothes closet stocked with "gently used clothing" appropriate for job interviews. The clothes closet will be available to all students on campus in need of appropriate clothing for a job interview.

We maintain a lending library of textbooks for eligible students with technical majors. We also offer emergency transportation assistance, and stock a small food pantry.

Finally, our office coordinates student support loans for textbooks and transportation of up to $300 for eligible students
