SPARC Human Services
The mission of CCD’s Human Services Program is to support students’ academic success by providing all Cityhawks with inclusive, collaborative and student-centered support services and culturally-responsive programming. Specifically, we offer non-clinical peer support, strength-based coaching, connection to campus, community-based resources and assistance, as well as professional development, training, and advocacy opportunities. The CCD Human Services Program also works to eliminate hunger and improve the health and well-being of all Cityhawks through the CCD Food Pantry which provides judgment-free access to healthy and nutritious foods and food assistance programs.
