Basic Needs Collective
Let's get you what you need.
The Basic Needs Collective is a coordinated resource referral hub. We educate and connect students to campus and community resources to help them meet their basic needs.
Basic Needs Resource Session
Our team is dedicated to supporting you. To get started, please schedule with us. During this session, we will carefully curate resources that cater to your unique needs. Each session lasts approximately 20 minutes, so we can fully address your needs.
We are open Monday, Tuesday, and Friday 7 am - 6 pm. Wednesday 9 am - 6 pm. Thursday 7 am - 4 pm. You can drop into our office in the Union basement or schedule an in-person or virtual visit.
