This grant, offered by the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE)’s Office of Migrant Education (OME), funds the High School Equivalency Program (HEP). This program is specifically designed to provide crucial support to migratory or seasonal farmworkers, including their immediate family members. The primary objective is to help these individuals achieve the equivalent of a secondary school diploma. By obtaining this educational credential, participants are then empowered to pursue improved employment opportunities, embark on military service, or gain admission into institutions of higher education and other vital postsecondary education or training pathways. This initiative profoundly aims to enhance educational attainment and open doors to future success for this deserving population.
