MOTIVATION, EDUCATION AND TRAINING, MET

Taken from the MET homepage at www.metinc.org: Motivation Education & Training, Inc. (MET) is a private nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization funded by a variety of public and private grants and contracts. MET does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, or disability. The agency was incorporated in 1967 and operates on a statewide basis in Texas, Louisiana, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wyoming. The organization was founded for the purpose of providing academic and vocational training to migrant and seasonal farm workers, with the objective of furthering economic self-sufficiency for MET participants. While serving farm workers is still the cornerstone of the agency's mission, MET has broadened its scope to include initiatives that target low-income and disadvantaged populations throughout the agency's service area.
