SPOKANE COUNTY, Wash. — Washington Student Achievement Council (WSAC) awarded an $850,000 grant to  LaunchNW for a new mentorship program at six Spokane County high schools. The goal of the money is to implement the Coordinated Community Mentorship Program (CCMP) at the awarded schools. The program partnered with 15 local organizations, and it will focus on connecting low-income, BIPOC, homeless and English language learning students and families with mentors offering support along the journey to post-high school education.
