The Trump administration has canceled several grants that were issued by the U.S. Department of Education.
The U.S. Department of Education has cut roughly $4 million in grants to UNC Charlotte for teacher training and hiring programs. The university confirmed Thursday that both Project TLC and Project Trusted have been canceled.
Project TLC was a collaboration with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools aimed at increasing educator diversity in high-need schools.
Project Trusted which stands for Teaching for Resilience via Understanding, Support, and Trauma-Informed Education was a collaboration with Union County Public Schools and Gaston County Schools to increase diversity of teachers in more rural areas.
