Passport to Careers Supports Students Who Have Been Homeless or in Foster Care
Have you been in foster care? Or were you homeless without a parent or guardian? The Passport to Careers program helps Washington students who have been homeless or in foster care prepare for careers.
Eligible students can get money to put toward the costs of earning a college certificate or degree, or to help pay for job training through a pre-apprenticeship or apprenticeship program. Passport also connects you with experts to help answer questions and navigate your pathway.
Visit the online Passport Guide to learn more about Passport to Careers, including eligibility information, details of how to apply, answers to frequently asked questions, and links to additional resources.
Preparing for college or career training on your own can seem overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be! There are people and programs available to help. Learn more and get support.
