Silvia Gomez is the first SASS student to earn a certificate in medical assisting. In addition, 11 students received PASS certificates. This certificate signifies that a student has completed all required Cañada College ESL classes as well as English 100, a college-level class that counts for credit at the University of California. These students can now start taking classes to prepare them for their chosen careers.

Special thanks to the Palo Alto Community Fund and the Henrikson Family Foundation
We want to extend our appreciation to the Palo Alto Community Fund and the Henrikson Family Foundation for choosing SASS as a 2017 grantee. This spring SASS supported more than 180 students in community college and provided 54 students with tutors. SASS's continued growth would not be possible without supporters like these.
