| Funding is requested for the Met Full Service Community School (FSCS) project to provide students, their families, and the community access to comprehensive services.

When funded, the Met FSCS will meet the community’s critical needs in education and health and well being; benefit the communities of two Met campuses in Providence (South Side and West End) and one in Newport (Tonomy Hill/Newport Heights); and help students develop 21st century workforce skills to increase their options to enter higher education and to become employable and active citizens. | |
