Thank you for visiting the CatalystFIRST page. CatalystFIRST has been paused indefinitely and we are no longer accepting new requests.

Since its launch in 2021, CatalystFirst has fulfilled more than 300 requests in support of first-generation student success nationwide. We are grateful to the incredible list of national experts who have dedicated their time, knowledge, and passion to this initiative, helping to advance the success of first-generation students. 

If you are seeking a speaker, we encourage you to connect directly with experts to arrange requests independently.

 

Network Journey

We invite you to explore the three phases that make up the FirstGen Forward journey for an institution upon joining the Network. New institutions will begin in the Network Member phase before progressing through the journey to become a Network Champion!
