GEAR UP
Partnership Grants

While CA GEAR UP is a statewide initiative, we also collaborate with and support local GEAR UP Partnership Grantees across the state. These are smaller, federally funded grants awarded to local school districts and their higher-education partners.
CA GEAR UP provides these grantees with statewide technical assistance to support their efforts in implementing deep, systemic change. Together, we work to increase college readiness and success for students across California.
