Mission statement
We understand that Basic Needs has a direct impact on the mental-emotional-physical health, wellness, academic performance, professional development, and holistic success of our students. The quality of life of our students has a major impact on their sense of belonging, persistence, graduation rate, and overall experience. Therefore, through a robust model of prevention, intervention, and emergency relief, Basic Needs provides and connects students to critical on- and off-campus resources and educational opportunities for students to take personal responsibility for their wellness and success.
