Reedley College, a Hispanic-Serving Institution in Reedley, California, received a one-year Project Grant to deliver comprehensive Student Support Services (SSS) to disadvantaged college students. The program provides targeted supportive services designed to enhance student retention, academic success, and transfer rates from two-year to four-year institutions. Services are directed toward low-income, first-generation, and students with disabilities enrolled at the college, with emphasis on improving academic potential and financial literacy to increase overall postsecondary education completion rates.

Reedley College's award aligns with the institution's broader mission as a comprehensive community college serving California's Central Valley, building upon its existing portfolio of federal TRIO programs and student support initiatives.
