The MDT Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Program encourages and supports the participation of companies owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals in transportation contracts.

"Access to preschool programs — and their quality — varies widely across Texas," according to a Houston Chronicle article, "Broad coalition pushes anew for expanded pre-K." http://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/education/article/Broad-coalition-pushes-anew-for-expanded-pre-K-5781401.php?cmpid=twitter-premium&t=94d342bd23

These variations play out within and across school districts. Some schools offer full-day programs, others only run for a half a day. So children in programs that are only 10 miles apart can have vastly different experiences.
