AboutSkillUP is a program meant to engage SNAP (Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program) recipients in education and training needed to pursue long-term employment in a career pathway that is in demand and provides good wages.
Missouri’s 13 community and technical colleges are participating in this program to provide the education and training to SNAP participants. Each college has a range of programs available to participants and will guide them in choosing a pathway based on interviews and testing. The SkillUP grant is administered by the Missouri Department of Social Services, Family Support Division and funded through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The Missouri Community College Association acts as the program administrator for Missouri’s 9 community and technical colleges. |
