Empowerment Scholarship Account Program

The Empowerment Scholarship Account (ESA) Program allows parents to manage a portion of public education funds for their children. Instead of attending a traditional public school, families can use these funds for various educational expenses, such as private school tuition, tutoring, online courses, or special needs services. The goal of the program is to give families more choice and flexibility in their children's education, fostering personalized learning experiences that best suit their individual needs. The program varies by state, including eligibility criteria and funding amounts.
