We are excited to introduce the 2024-2025 cohort of AmeriCorps members who will be serving either as a Student Resource Center (SRC) Coordinator or an AmeriCorps member through the Community Campus Coalition (Triple C). These dedicated individuals will spend the year supporting students by connecting them to vital campus, community, state, and federal resources that help eliminate barriers to academic success.
The SRC is a pivotal initiative aimed at addressing both academic and non-academic challenges—such as housing, food insecurity, mental health, and more—that can prevent students from reaching their full potential. Our AmeriCorps members will be integral in fostering the growth and development of SRCs, acting as approachable and knowledgeable advocates for students, ensuring they receive the support they need to succeed.
