The University of Georgia is working to support the needs of these students in Athens-Clarke County and neighboring counties through TRIO programs. These federally funded college access grant programs provide academic guidance, personal support and resources to help students get to college, succeed in college and graduate with their degrees.

Through their respective programs, they gained both the tools to advance their academic goals and the confidence to see college as an option within their reach.
