Gator Pantry - Having access to food is
a crucial part of being able to keep up
with schoolwork and life responsibilities. For many students it can be difficult to access the food they need because of transportation issues, not qualifying for SNAP/EBT, or running out of food before the next paycheck. The Gator Pantry is here to help students get access to food both on campus and to take home. The Gator Pantry also has hygiene supplies, menstrual supplies, sexual health items, and opioid overdose prevention supplies.
Transformational Wellness- The Violence Prevention and Support Program and Gators Thrive provide individual support
to students and promote wellness for
the college community. The Violence Prevention and Support Program implements campus-wide strategies to prevent interpersonal violence and provide support to all members of the campus community that have experienced stalking, harassment, sexual assault, and relationship violence. Gators Thrive includes individual and group recovery coaching to students who are either in recovery or interested
in recovery. The program practices harm reduction but can also provide support
to students in 12-step programs who
are practicing sobriety. The Child Care Access Means Parents in School Program (CCAMPIS) helps offset childcare costs for parents who are also pursuing certificates/ degrees at Green River College.
WHAT IS GATORS CARE?
The Gators CARE Committee is committed to fostering a safe learning and working environment for the Green River College community by providing prevention education, training and resources to students and employees. The committee is made up of staff, faculty, CCA staff, students, and community partners. More information, please visit the Center For Transformational Wellness, located in the Student Affairs (SA) building, Room SA 122.
WHAT IS VAWA?
The Violence Against Women Act is a federal law enacted to improve the criminal justice and community-based responses to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking. VAWA, along with the Campus Save Act and the Jeanne Clery Act, have worked together to improve the safety of college campuses. Under these laws, colleges must educate students, faculty and staff on the prevention of rape, acquaintance rape, domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking.
