The 2023 Scholarship Guidebook lists eligibility details for each HCCF-administered scholarship. The guidebook was mailed to the homes of all graduating students at the four Hancock County public high schools in November. The guidebooks are also available through the Guidance Department at each of the four public high schools, the Hancock County Public Library, Work One, and the LINK office. You can also read our guidebook online HERE.
