According to Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs, hungry, homeless, or unsafe students, fail to reach their optimal potential. Studies show that students who are hungry are less likely to complete their academic goals. The Basic Needs Pirate Advisory Committee vows to provide Palo Verde College students with resources, in addition to food, to help combat food insecurity on campus.
The Basic Needs Pirate Advisory Committee will serve as support for both Food Insecurity and Basic Needs Services. We will meet on the First Wednesday at 9:00 via zoom/ or teams.
