What Services Does EOPS Offer?

Many students learn about EOPS because we offer money to books to eligible students, but EOPS is a lot more than a book program. EOPS offers many services to help you succeed in your academic goals.

Counseling

EOPS/CARE/CalWORKs provides professional counselors to help with academic and personal concerns. Counselors help students stay focused throughout their studies. If you are a current EOPS student you can schedule an academic counseling appointment or utilize drop in hours.  Drop ins will not count as a scheduled counseling appointment.
