RCC Equity Commitment

La Casa – A Foundational Student Equity Program at RCC

We support equity groups with academic, instructional, self-affirming, and direct support. This allows students to remain engaged in campus life while successfully completing coursework, leading to degree completion and/or transfer opportunities. Students who fall within an equity gap will be:

  • Supported throughout the four Pillars of the RCC Guided Pathways
  • Given the opportunity to engage in academic and equity activities within a supportive community
  • Provided opportunities to explore unique academic and professional areas of interest
  • Valued and supported in the successful attainment of their academic, career and personal development goals (Riverside City College Student Equity Committee Mission)
