The PCC Basic Needs Hub is a part of the Basic Needs, Sustainability and Leadership department. Each Hub is staffed by a team of Peer Resource Navigators. Our Peer Resource Navigators are student interns from the PCC Family and Human Services program who offer a peer-to-peer model of support.
Learn more about our program and check out our events page.
