The Federal TRIO programs help low-income individuals, first-generation college students, and individuals with disabilities to progress through the academic pipeline from middle school through higher education. Under the FAFSA Simplification Act, TRIO and GEAR UP programs are newly authorized to determine unaccompanied homeless youth status on the FAFSA. During this panel, webinar participants will learn about FAFSA simplification and its implications for TRIO Student Support Services (SSS), as well as hear from two TRIO SSS programs on how they support students experiencing homelessness and how they will implement the new FAFSA provisions.
