Feeding Cerritos
Taking care of our community means – we take care of the whole person – meeting the
basic needs of our most vulnerable students and community members when they need it
most. Food, during times of distress, is often the best way to show you care. Through
our Falcon’s Nest, Cerritos College is feeding the community, and providing centralized
support services for students facing basic need insecurities. Our students can access
on- and offcampus food, housing, health & wellness, financial wellness, and employment
resources.
