Department of Education Title V Developing Hispanic Serving Institutions Grants

The Developing Hispanic-Serving Institutions (DHSI) Program is a U.S. Department of Education grant program that provides grant funding to assist HSIs to expand educational opportunities for, and improve the attainment of, Hispanic students. These five-year grants also enable HSIs to expand and enhance their academic offerings, program quality, and institutional stability.

Clovis Community College has enjoyed a long history as a Hispanic Serving Institution, having more than 25% of our students identifying as Hispanic. We have received several Title V awards over the past 20 years.

Clovis Community College has an active Title V Individual grant that began in October 2020.
