Community Resources

Overview

The TAMUCT Community Resources program is dedicated to helping students meet their basic needs so they can stay focused on their education. We connect students to essential local services, including healthcare, legal aid, financial assistance, and housing support. Additionally, we provide access to vital resources for food, nutrition, family care, and safety, guiding students in securing social service assistance. Our goal is to support the holistic well-being of our students, enabling them to thrive academically and personally.

Our Commitment: The Community Resources program and its liaison are here to help students meet their needs outside the classroom, so they can succeed inside the classroom. We are part of the broader academic support programs offered through the Warrior Center for Student Success Program, dedicated to fostering a supportive environment where students can thrive both academically and personally.
