During these trying times with regards to the effects of COVID-19, we are working hard in trying to keep our website up to date with community resources that can provide some support as well as in adjusting our programming to provide both remote and in person services. Our CalFresh Outreach support will continue providing support remotely and in person and our consultations with our Basic Needs Resources Team can occur via Zoom (remotely) or in person. Please set up appointments using our Calendly scheduler located in the respective webpage. We are modifying our Mountie Fresh Food Pantry to follow campus directives and to keep our students and volunteers safe.
