Nothing Can Stop Keya Rohlman
Keya Rohlman is the picture of perseverance in Olympic College’s episode of The College Tour on Prime Video. She completed an associate degree at OC in 2014 with her 3-month-old daughter by her side, and dreams of eventually pursuing a bachelor’s in counseling. “Growing up, I always knew I wanted to help people,” she said.
Keya eventually returned to OC with the support of BFET, the Basic Food and Employment Training program that supports low-income families in career training. At OC, education is within reach to many students thanks to funding and support from programs such as BFET, WorkFirst and Worker Retraining.
Keya recently graduated as a licensed substance and alcohol abuse counselor. “Going back to school as a single mom and working full time was so hard, but so worth it,” she said “I had OC with me every step of the way."
