Student Support Services (SSS) Program, a federally funded TRiO program of the U.S. Department of Education, is designed to assist participants with enhancing their academic skills, increase their retention and graduation rates, and promote transfer to 4 year institutions from community college by fostering a climate supportive of student success. The SSS program is new at the Northern Wyoming Community College District but has been in place throughout the nation helping students grow as learners and professionals while obtaining their degree since 1968.
