Texas Workforce Commission supported programs encourage students to participate in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) programs in order to promote pursuit of careers and educations in these in-demand fields.
The Texas Workforce Commission grant serves as an opportunity to help develop new high school aged teams in the State of Texas, specifically teams composed of students with disabilities, coming from under-served, underrepresented, or financially limited communities, teams serving military bases, teams made up of home-schooled students, students who are economically disadvantaged, foster students, and teams in rural areas.
