Fantastically helpful book for College access workers & college-bound students

This book is a bible for college preparatory services! All of our Americorps VISTA members took this book home for the holidays as part of their ongoing training as college access facilitators. There is really nothing else like this out there--there are tons of reports, but nothing else with faces, names, and the emotional resonance of First in the Family.
