Texas is taking a multipronged approach to improving developmental education delivery and increasing student success rates by aggressively pursuing programmatic, research, and instructional strategies that will boost college completion and help reach labor market goals. Texas higher education has committed itself to providing improved and more efficient avenues to success for academically underprepared students through the Texas Success Initiative system, which is more nuanced in its advising, placement, and curricular interventions than previous models. Catch the Next, Inc. (CTN), established in 2009, is a national college readiness and completion organization empowering students to catch college and career dreams. The program combines holistic student services and a comprehensive academic pathway that ensures student and institutional success. CTN empowers Latino and other underrepresented students to catch their college and career dreams. The CTN program, known as "Ascender," expedites transition into credit-bearing courses, targeting at-risk students entering community college, including Latino and first-time college-goers. Texas state higher education policy is now shifting towards large-scale adoption of a corequisite model. This study investigates the Ascender programs emphasis on wrap-around services that include academic, emotional-social, and community supports for Latino and other under-served community college students. The Ascender program contains an asset-based curriculum approach that focuses on strengths. It views diversity in thought, culture, and traits as positive assets. The Ascender program focuses on "literacy-based approach across disciplines," which highlights literature and culture reflective of the demographics of the classroom in all classes.
