RESOURCE ROOM
The Resource Room is designed to address the physical and psychosocial needs of students on campus to promote academic success. Hunger and food insecurity are realities students too often face during their matriculation through higher learning. In addition, other stressors like access to hygiene items, access to professional attire for internships and employment opportunities, access to infant hygiene items for parenting students and psychosocial support can impact students' academic success and retention. This resource room has been developed with these concerns in mind, as a one stop location to supplement the needs of students on campus and provide access to on- or off- campus resources or referrals as needed.
