The House concurrent resolution No. R-112 honors the significant contributions of the Federal TRIO Programs in Vermont, which provide essential educational support to financially disadvantaged students aspiring to be the first in their families to graduate from college. Established through various legislative acts starting in 1964, these programs include Upward Bound, Talent Search, and Student Support Services, among others, and have evolved to create a comprehensive support system for students seeking higher education.

The resolution acknowledges the ongoing impact of these programs and recognizes the representatives and administrators from the Federal TRIO Programs who visited the State House on April 25, 2025. It emphasizes the importance of these initiatives in facilitating access to education and encourages continued support for their mission. The resolution concludes by directing the Secretary of State to send a copy to the Board of Directors of the Vermont Educational Opportunity Programs, further solidifying the state's commitment to educational equity.
