How are migrant children recruited?
Pennsylvania employs individuals who recruit migrant children for the Migrant Education Program. Recruiters locate children through referrals from growers, industry owners and employees, other migrant families and local school districts. Once a migrant family is identified, recruiters interview family members to determine if the children are eligible for migrant education services. Recruiters also help migrant families find other services that they may be eligible for. If you know of a family that may be eligible for migrant services, contact the Division of Migrant Education or the Project Area closest to you.
