The Ventura College Basic Needs program took me in like family. They understood my needs as a student athlete. The BNC helped me with countless resources. I especially love the pantry. It’s stocked with everyday needs like fruits, vegetables, frozen foods, even laundry detergent. I knew that I could stop in and get a snack and a drink everyday. They also help with housing and showers and are always available to talk to students who have a lot on their shoulders. I am forever grateful for my family at the BNC.
