In 1984, the U.S. Congress enacted the Carl D. Perkins Vocational Education and Applied Technology Education Act authorizing the creation of vocational education programs to improve the employment status of Native Hawaiians. Through Title 1-Section 116 (h) of the Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act, the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Vocational and Adult Education-National Programs Division awards the set-aside funds annually to ALU LIKE, Inc., through a non-competitive grant process.
