<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black">Ivy Tech's Fort Wayne campus announced Monday the start of a pilot program designed to alleviate non-academic barriers for students receiving federal nutrition assistance
benefits. Ivy Works will provide students in certain short-term workforce ready programs with services and support addressing such needs as transportation, child care, tax preparation and housing, officials said during a news conference in the Student Life
Center. These non-academic barriers might otherwise keep at-risk students from enrolling in and completing college, said Chris Douse, director of student success and engagement and head of Ivy Works. ... Chancellor Jerrilee Mosier was inspired to start Ivy
Works after seeing a similar program take off at a community college in Washington state, she said. She noted Ivy Tech gleaned wisdom from <b>Edmonds Community College</b> while developing its program.<br>
