The latest, from Oct 23: The update described SU SUCCESS as a statewide grant to pilot wrap-around support initiatives for at-risk students. The program carries $1.5 million per year and is renewable. Westfield State plans to use it for success coaches, emergency grants, and a $2,000 annual stipend for eligible students.
