Monterey County offers the children of agricultural workers a fun summer filled with innovative science projects, dance and ceramics, in addition to beefing up their math and English skills. It’s one of dozens of these programs statewide and even more across the nation.






But this could be the last summer the program is offered. President Donald Trump froze funds for the program and wants to eliminate it entirely.
