Community Resource Hub & Food Pantry
Our food pantry, created in 2018 to address the issue of food insecurity facing our students, provides food, personal hygiene items, cleaning products at no cost. In 2020 we expanded services that address a broader range of basic needs insecurity, such as those related to housing, healthcare, transportation, childcare, technology, WIFI access, etc. We are dedicated to connecting our students with community resources that will improve their health, wellness, and security.
