The Foundation was created in 2001 by the Michigan Council for Exceptional Children to provide support for educational opportunities (e.g. transportation, special equipment, tutoring or tuition) for students with exceptionalities continuing with their education.
This scholarship program is intended to provide support for educational and training opportunities for students who are no longer eligible for special education or Section 504 program services provided by resident school districts due to graduation or reaching age 26.
Students exiting their educational program this school year are eligible to apply. They will need to provide proof of acceptance from a vocational program, two year or four year college or university.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Foundation is to provide resources or engage directly in activities for the purpose of ensuring the full educational, physical, vocational and personal-social development of youth with exceptionalities.
