College & Community Fellowship is a New York–based nonprofit focused on removing barriers to education and civic participation for women with criminal convictions and their families. The organization supports educational, economic, and civic participation needs in the New York metropolitan area and works with other groups to facilitate successful re-entry for its target population. It positions itself within the nonprofit sector addressing justice-involved populations and education access, coordinating programs that address barriers faced by currently and formerly incarcerated women. Based in New York City, the group operates with a size typical of small-to-mid nonprofit teams and collaborates as part of broader national advocacy efforts through the Education from the Inside Out Coalition. A notable recent development includes the hiring of a communications associate in 2017, reflecting ongoing organizational activity and capacity-building within the local community.
