Mental Health Outcomes for California Community College Students Experiencing Unmet Basic Needs (2004)
In this brief, we examine findings from fourteen California community colleges (CCCs) that completed the Healthy Minds Study (HMS) survey in Spring 2022. We present findings on student mental health as it relates to basic needs such as financial security, food security, and social connections. Our findings illustrate the overlapping elements of the student experience and support the importance of coordinated and collaborative action to support student well-being.
