STUDENT SUCCESS STORY

Jairo Salgado

Machine Tool Technology

"I am where I am now because of an internship opportunity through Compton College, and because Los Angeles County Social Services and Compton College's education programs created a pathway that allowed me to achieve a better life for myself and my family. More public-private partnerships like this are needed to address the various situations and challenges that we as students must overcome. When I reflect on how I got to where I am now, it was through the alignment of social services, employers, and Compton College - and their shared culture of supporting the whole student.”
