In the fall of 2007, we realized our highest enrollment in over a decade. The new Art and Science Center opened in September 2007 with a wonderful community celebration and ribbon-cutting. Students are taking full advantage of our “high-tech, high-touch” approach to teaching and learning. At NCCC, “the small college that does great things,” you are a name and not a number. I like to describe the faculty and staff at NCCC as “The A Team.” We are committed to keeping our college accessible, affordable and accountable. Access: We are founded on a mission that embraces open-entry. We will take you from where you are and help you reach your goal. Affordable: We are the best buy in public higher education in the state today. Ac- countable: We are committed to the success of our students and to serving our community. In an editorial entitled the “Little College That Could,” The Litchfield County Times described NCCC as “an over-achiev- ing local resource that propels area students on a higher education arc that leads them to success---without leaving home, without tremendous costs and without sacrificing access to great teachers, cutting-edge technology, a wonderful campus and the opportunity to go on to accomplish anything.” Whether you are taking a continuing education course in motorcycle safety or a college credit calculus course, “The A Team” looks forward to accompanying you on your educational journey. Come learn with us!

Truly fitting, this title signifies Pope John's importance in the world of today, Our Holy Father's love for his children can be seen in many ways, especially by his title, " The Servant of the Servants of God." Through his encyclical, MATER ET MAGISTRA, Pope John is attempting to improve the social and economic conditions prevalent in the world today, Striving for unity, the Holy Father called the Second Vatican Council in 1962.

Working together with love this past year, we were able to serve 3,080 children in all of our lifesaving programs which are all fully open and operating live and in-person. We are grateful to our amazing frontline professional staff and we did not suffer a single pandemic-related program closing or staff layoff. In effect, the only thing that truly changed at JAFCO during this challenging year, is our increased level of gratitude for the health and safety of our extended JAFCO family which includes our children, our families, our volunteers and our donors.
