How will this program help students?
As parents and guardians try to help their students recover from learning loss, Idaho students need access to additional supports necessary to meet their individual learning needs. Empowering Parents allows families to purchase the educational resources most likely to help their children succeed academically.

How do I determine my income eligibility?
Grants will be prioritized and awarded first to households with an Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) at or below $60,000 per year. Once the first phase is awarded, the AGI limit will be expanded to households earning up to $75,000 per year. After that phase, if there are any grant funds still available, the program will be available to all other eligible students on a first come first serve basis.
The Empowering Parents Program Idaho gets its money from the state of Idaho. Parents who think their kids might fit the program can apply online.
Idaho students ages 5-18 are eligible regardless of school type attended: Public, Charter, Private, or Homeschool.
