Education

Education allows us to reach our greatest potential and prepare us to participate in a nation and economy that continues as a global leader. For some Laotian Americans, “model minority” is just a myth since educational attainment is a far bigger obstacle than meets the eye.

LANA seeks to help Laotian Americans build a stronger future through education. We’ve compiled information and resources here that will help future Laotian American leaders of tomorrow get ahead today.

    Please correct all “sholarships” words on this web page. They should be “scholarships”. Thank you and keep up the good work.
