Who We Are

Ohio TRiO is a community of professionals committed to helping students who want to achieve success in school and in life. We work with TRIO and other educational opportunity programs that help participants prepare for and succeed in postsecondary education. TRIO programs receive funding from the United States Department of Education. We offer a variety of services to help our participants achieve success.
