WHY SUPPORT TRIO?
Americans, regardless of their background, financial status, or disability have the right to attend college – a goal too often thought unattainable for many citizens. Although the desire may have been present, the means to achieve that goal was beyond the reach of many. Indiana TRIO projects have successfully made it their mission to remove social, academic, and cultural barriers that prevent many students from entering and graduating from college. But don’t take our word for it; hear from some of the Indiana students who benefit from these programs.
