Student Basic Needs

Support Beyond the Classroom

At Golden West College, we believe students do their best when their basic needs are met. If you’re worried about food, housing, transportation, technology, or unexpected expenses, you’re not alone … and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. Our Basic Needs team connects students with resources, support programs and community partners so you can stay focused on your education.

At GWC’s Basic Needs center, The Stand, students can access:

  • Free groceries and pantry items
  • Ready-to-eat meals and snacks
  • Hygiene items, baby supplies, and clothing
  • CalFresh application assistance
  • Emergency food support
