Knowledge-First Awarded: Community Development Block Grant

Houston, Texas – 01/May 2015 – Mr. James H. Allen announced today that the Knowledge-First Empowerment Center has been selected by the City of Missouri City, Missouri City Texas to provide educational services to citizens of Missouri City who are high school dropouts, to seek and obtain their high school diploma. 
“From the family bread-winner to those seeking secondary education or career or technical choices, having a high school diploma is the first step in one’s path of self-actualization and efficacy”, says Mr. Allen. 

In addition to helping citizens fulfill graduation requirements our program will expand our community’s tax base by raising the standard of living of our dropout population, reduce the health costs that we all have to share, reduce the crime rate, reduce the drain on our public assistance program and increase voter participation.
