These federal investments will enable Baltimore-area community colleges to provide students with the resources they need to overcome obstacles and succeed in school and beyond,” said the lawmakers. The federal grants have been awarded as follows: $712,158 to Community College of Baltimore County $415,290 to Baltimore City Community 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 | 2026-04-06T19:10:29Z |
