Welcome!
The Mosaic Center opened its doors in July 2017 and provides a welcoming space for specially funded support programs including Dream Resource Center, Veterans Resource Center Dream Resource Center, and Umoja Black Scholars (Annex CC 102).
We provide a safe environment to program eligible students who have been disproportionately impacted and identified in the Student Equity Plan (2015). Our efforts include targeted campus and community outreach, academic counseling, tutoring, workshops, cultural celebrations, field trips and referrals to other available resources on and off campus.
