About Us

C.A.R.E is our Motto

We promote  camaradarie, the Advancement of our students, offer Resources and Empower you to be your best selves. (We CARE).

Our Mission

We aim to create a supportive environment that enables the success of our veterans through academics, wellness, and camaraderie.  We provide support services for student veterans, military service members, and or their dependents.  We are committed to supporting you in acheiving academic success, professional growth, and meaningful employment.

Meet our Staff and Veteran Students

The Veterans Resource Center is staffed by dedicated professionals from several departments across campus who have an interest in Veterans' success.

You'll also meet Veteran students on our team who works through the VA Work-Study program, helping fellow Veterans who are attending or planning to attend classes at Foothill College.

We're always looking for opportunities to network with the community, to raise awareness of Veteran-related issues and to advocate for Veterans.
