The Future Connect Program provides scholarships to low-income and/or first-generation students enrolling at Portland Community College.

In June 2024, Hillsboro City Council unanimously approved $135,000 in continued support for the 2024-25 school year.

Since 2013, Hillsboro has allocated more than $1.3 million in funding from the Community Service Fee collected from Hillsboro companies who utilize the Enterprise Zone property tax abatement incentive.

To date, the City has provided 600 Hillsboro students with a scholarship, a college success coach, and more.
