Our greatest resource is human capital. To ensure a robust economy in which growth is shared and sustained, we must invest in our youth by giving them the access to a quality education at all levels.
Evidence indicates that the greatest barrier to higher education is personal family experience.
If no members of a family have gone to college, subsequent generations are less likely to attend. However, once the first family member goes to college, future generations are far more likely to obtain a higher education. LINC will provide first generation Latino college students with an opportunity to obtain a degree in higher education through our scholarship program - thus, breaking through the glass ceiling one family at a time. LINC's commitment to our youth and their future does not end at the college gate.
