A pilot program starting next month will help some college students learn for free.It's an expansion of the partnership between Manchester Community College and the state's Department of Health and Human Services.Students who receive SNAP food assistance will have the chance to take free courses for high-demand industries like cybersecurity, health care and carpentry."It provides an opportunity. It provides a pathway. So, it’s not a handout. It’s an empowerment model. This is a ladder. Education is the ladder for people to move up in the world," said Brian Bicknell, of Manchester Community College.Now, the program is only being offered at Manchester Community College, but there are hopes it will expand across the state.
