Bright Futures is a Weld County, Colorado workforce initiative designed to strengthen the vitality of the Weld County community. By nurturing and supporting the next generation with tuition assistance in the form of money for post-secondary education or training certification, we are building a strong foundation for a stable economy.
Understanding the importance of trade and academic skills, the Weld County Board of Commissioners launched Bright Futures in 2015. The goal is to financially assist students who pursue post-secondary education or training and certification programs within the Bright Futures geographic region.
The program is open to qualifying Weld County residents who have graduated from high school, earned a GED, or were honorably discharged from the U.S. armed forces. Accepted recipients may receive financial assistance of up to $14,000 over the course of eight semesters.
