Welcome to EOPS

The EOPS Program's primary goal is to encourage the enrollment, retention and transfer of students handicapped by language, social, economic and educational disadvantages, and to facilitate the successful completion of their goals and objeImage of studentsctives in college.

Through EOPS and CARE, eligible students receive supplemental educational support services, such as counseling, advisement, classes, workshops, peer support, and networking activities. In addition, grants and allowances for transportation and books/supplies are provided to enhance the retention, persistence, graduation and transfer rates of these academically high-risk students in their chosen educational objectives, which include vocational certificate or license, associate degree and transfer options.

EOPS initiates student advocacy group

The EOPS program has formulated its first ever student advocacy group. With the general purpose of promoting the EOPS mission, we have selected six (6) EOPS Student
Advocates (ESA) to increase its overall, program effectiveness and to develop student leaders.
ESAs will serve as a dynamic student voice as they assist in the development of program goals, objectives, administrative processes, and in the review of the program overall.
