ACE 19th Cohort Graduation Celebration

We invite all of our ��Ů and community partners to join our ACE Graduation Celebration. This year, we are celebrating our 19th cohort of ACE Scholar graduates on their hard work and resilience achieving their Bachelors' degree.

As many know, navigating college can pose a lot of challenges. For foster youth, these challenges can lead to higher rates of dropping out compared to their non-foster youth peers. But with the help and care from ACE, over 145 graduates have successfully completed their degrees and move on to great opportunities beyond ��Ů! We cannot wait to celebrate more graduates with you on May 7th, 2026.

Please make sure to RSVP so we know who to send parking instructions to. Feel free to let us know how we can help with any questions or concerns!

Thank you for being an ongoing partner to support ACE Scholars' success.

Location: ��Ů Tukwut Courtyard (In front of Jan and Esther Stearn's Center for ACE Scholars)

Time: 4:30 p.m.- 6:30 p.m.
