The campus-based support programs at UTSA, Texas A & M, and the Alamo Colleges District are housed in dedicated spaces or centers. Within these centers, students have the opportunity to build a sense of community. Students have access to a campus coach who provides coaching (assessment, direct service, and referrals), a strategy based on the Western Michigan University Coaching model. Our trained coaches administer a biopsychosocial assessment centered on the Casey Family program’s seven life domains to evaluate strengths, identify barriers, and measure progress in reaching the student-centered goals. Also, the campus-based programs provide additional supports such as emergency funds, food pantries, school supplies, self-care products, transportation support, and other resources that if left unmet, would be a barrier to their educational success. The campus coach provides direct services within the dedicated space or referrals to campus or community champions to meet the needs of each student.
