TRiO
A "Home Away from Home"
The goal of the TRiO Student Support Services Program is to assist students with their academic, professional, and personal goals. We aim to assist first-generation, low-income, and students with documented disabilities in their goal of transferring to a four-year university. Our goal is to be a one-stop hub where you can obtain the resources and services that you will need to guide your success here at LA Valley College.
