Supporting People Through Advocacy and Care
Student Advocacy Centers across the Alamo Colleges District continue to support our students by providing wraparound support services. We will help with issues that are outside the classroom but can negatively impact stress, focus, and student performance. We will provide counseling and case management support as well as emergency* aid and access to community resources.
*An emergency is something dangerous or serious, such as an accident, that happens suddenly or unexpectedly. Awards are not guaranteed and may vary based on grant availability and student eligibility. As of Fall 2022, students may receive up to 1 award per semester.
