Basic Needs Department
Welcome to UC Riverside’s Basic Needs Department, a place where students can connect with essential resources that make college life easier.
If you are experiencing basic needs challenges, such as food insecurity, housing displacement/homelessness, or financial crisis, we encourage you to reach out to us for assistance.
Learn more about the Basic Needs programs currently offered to any currently enrolled Highlander that needs them. Check eligibility, find contacts, and get instructions on how to request services.
Basic Needs appreciates your donations. A financial donation to the Basic Needs Department provides direct support to students experiencing basic needs insecurity. To learn more about how to donate to the Basic Needs Department please visit our Donate Page
