These federal investments will enable community colleges in Prince George’s and Montgomery Counties to provide students with the resources they need to overcome obstacles and succeed in college and beyond,” said the lawmakers. The federal grants have been awarded as follows: $440,388 to Prince George's Community College $286,109 to Montgomery College The federal funding comes from the U.S. Department of Education's TRIO Student Support Services grant program, which supports preparation and guidance for students as they pursue education beyond high school. This program was funded at $1.91 billion through the FY25 government funding bill. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T15:07:37Z |
