Arizona Upward Bound/TRiO program hosted in the University of Arizona College of Education is a pre-college program that works with 60 potential first-generation, low-income high school students from @pueblowarriors and @chollahigh. The program work with the students year-round to ensure they are eligible and prepared for college.

This year, the program was awarded funds from the University of Arizona College of Education Diversity's Committee Mini-Grant Program on behalf of the Upward Bound Program in collaboration with local artist Mel Dominguez.

This week, Upward Bound students have been working with Mel Dominguez to complete a mural near Tanline Printshop on Fourth Avenue in South Tucson.
