Our team includes long time TRIO staff members, TRIO program alumni, with backgrounds in counseling, philosophy, art, education and psychology all of whom bring a wealth of experiences to help students succeed academically through high school and in life.

These experiences help us hone our participants math and science skills, explore avenues, create opportunities and help them pursue college and career in these disciplines. While our main office is located in the Canfield Administration Building at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, we also have a strong presence in the Lincoln Public Schools we serve.
