Fast Track Workforce Incentive Grant

The Fast Track Workforce Incentive Grant is a new financial aid program for adults. The grant addresses workforce needs by helping adults pursue a certificate, degree, or industry-recognized credential in an area designated as high need. Grant recipients must maintain Missouri residency and work in Missouri for three years after graduation to prevent the grant from becoming a loan that must be repaid with interest.

Kids’ Chance Scholarship

A serious injury is one that led to a paid settlement or judicial award and is verified with information from the Missouri Division of Workers’ Compensation.

Public Service Officer or Employee’s Child Survivor Grant

Wartime Veteran’s Survivors Grant

The Wartime Veteran’s Survivor Grants are available annually to children and spouses of veterans whose deaths or injuries were:

  • a result of combat action or were attributed to an illness that was contracted while serving in combat action, or
  • who became 80 percent disabled as a result of injuries or accidents sustained in combat action since Sept. 11, 2001.

The children and spouses of Missouri resident combat veterans deployed for active duty service on or after September 11, 2001, may also be eligible if the veteran received a DD214 indicating a combat pay tax exclusion exemption, or pay for hazardous duty, imminent danger, or hostile fire.  The total number of students that may receive a grant in any year is limited by statute to 25. The veteran must have been a Missouri resident when first entering the military service or at the time of death or injury.
