Career/Technical supply reimbursement program

0.0 stars

The Career/Technical supply reimbursement program allows for grant funds to alleviate financial burdens on students in specific career and technical education programs. Hence, breaking down barriers for students. The program reimburses students up to $250 for out-of-pocket expenses. The expenses are program specific and are required by the program. Nursing (RN/LVN), Pharmacy Technician, Emergency Medical Services, and Surgical Technology program expenses may include badges, scrubs/uniforms/lab coats, watches, stethoscope, shoes, electronic device, and blood pressure cuff. Welding could include the student's welding hood and gloves. Barber and Cosmetology expenses could include the required student kit (manikin heads, clippers, shears, combs, brushes, hair dryers, curling irons, etc). Students have been very appreciative of the reimbursement program. Many, as we know, don't have extra funds for the additional costs that financial aid can't cover.

DELIVERY FORMAT: The program is in-person only.

PROGRAM SCALE: Large-scale (reaches more than 25 percent of its intended target population)
