# Housing and Human Services Advisory Education Hearing Oct. 1, 2026

The City of Longmont Housing and Human Services Advisory Board held an education funding hearing on October 20, 2026, to hear nonprofit applicants describe programs and funding requests. Presenters discussed adult English-language, high-school-equivalency and digital-literacy classes; Colorado Statewide Parent Coalition programs supporting parents, early-childhood providers and families of children with disabilities; Early Childhood Council of Boulder County’s child-care scholarships and provider support; and Dreamer and family programs serving students and families. The discussion covered community demand, participant outcomes, capacity, fundraising and diversifying revenue. No specific requested dollar amounts, funding awards, or votes were reported in the transcript.

Board members emphasized City Council direction that City funding should generally cover no more than 30% of a program’s cost and asked applicants to clarify other funding sources and how City support would fit into total program costs. Staff indicated that follow-up conversations could clarify applications. No contracts, vendor selections, or other procurement actions were identified.
