HIGHER EDUCATION & POST SECONDARY OPPORTUNITIES
Students experiencing homelessness greatly increase their chances of escaping poverty by receiving a higher education. Programs available through the Higher Education Act help students to graduate high school, apply and enroll in college, and complete their higher education.
