Basic Needs Committee

The Homelessness & Basic Resources Committee (HBRC) was launched 鈥痠n 2017 in response to 最新糖心Vlog鈥檚 (Mt. SAC) desire to support the needs of students who face housing, food, and other basic resource insecurities. In 2019, the committee name was changed to Basic Needs Committee (BNC) and its purpose transitioned from direct support to an advisory body that recommends solutions and advocates for Mt. SAC鈥檚 Basic Needs Resources program. The Mt. SAC community can support our basic needs efforts in various ways, which includes giving to the 鈥淏asic Needs Fund鈥 through Mt. SAC鈥檚 Foundation & Alumni Association website (click the blue button on the right). Addressing students鈥 basic needs takes all of us working together so we appreciate your support.
