Hopkinsville Community College received a $351,954 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Postsecondary Education under the TRIO Student Support Services (SSS) Program (CFDA 84.042) for the period September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2026. The grant funds comprehensive supportive services designed to enhance postsecondary educational outcomes for disadvantaged student populations, specifically low-income, first-generation, and students with disabilities enrolled at the institution.

The funded services focus on increasing student retention and graduation rates while facilitating successful transfer pathways from the two-year institution to four-year universities. Key service components include academic support, financial literacy instruction, and enhanced student success programming aimed at improving overall postsecondary completion rates. As part of the statewide Kentucky Community and Technical College System, Hopkinsville Community College leverages this funding to support educational access and completion for vulnerable student populations within its service area.
