Colleges and universities throughout California have food pantries, basic needs offices and programs to address a wide variety of non-academic emergencies.
Campuses can help students through the CalFresh application process. Many have beds available on campus or in nearby hotels to get students through a sudden loss of housing. Students can get cash grants to pay the rent or water or light bills.
