Student Assistance Program
We understand life happens. And what life throws at you can sometimes get in the way of reaching your goals. STLCC offers the Student Assistance Program to help you through many situations that may make it harder to finish your degree.
Welcome to the spring 2021 semester!
As we continue to accommodate local and federal guidelines, services will be provided on an appointment basis through phone and video conferencing methods. To easily get started, complete our survey form to tell us how you are doing and how we can help you. We’ll respond to you within a couple of days with the information & resources you request. You can also contact us directly through phone or email as listed below.
Services
Crisis Assistance
If you find yourself needing a meal to get you through the day, in need of a safe place to stay for the night or you are experiencing an unsafe relationship, we can help connect you with local resources. The Archers' Market order form is available on our Hunger Response page.
Navigating Assistance Programs
Do you need help determining if you’re eligible for government assistance, gathering materials to apply and ensuring a quick and simple application process? If so, we have a large library of resources to help you navigate the process and connect you to additional support.
Program Verification
We don’t just help you enroll in assistance programs, but also support you along the way, including verifying attendance and progress for certain programs.
Advocacy Services
Do you find yourself in a situation where you have to choose between your education and something else? Are you feeling overwhelmed by a responsibility or burden? We’re ready to empower and help teach you the skills to advocate for yourself.
