Illinois Migrant Council--Migrant Education Program

The Illinois Migrant Council (IMC) is a community-based non-profit organization with the primary mission of promoting employment, education, health, housing and other opportunities for migrant and seasonal farmworkers (MSFW) and their families to achieve economic self-sufficiency and stability.

IMC’s Illinois Migrant Education Resource Project coordinates the identification and recruitment of eligible migrant children and youth, curriculum and instruction, professional development and parent involvement and exchange of student information for the State’s Migrant Education Program. The project promotes quality programming and education for migrant children and youth from preschool to high school and emphasizes efforts to connect migrant dropout youth with educational programming.
