Today, we recognize World Food Day and stand together in the fight to end world hunger.

Access to nutritious food is a basic need, yet millions of people around the world experience hunger and food insecurity. Ending hunger takes awareness, compassion, and action, and starts with making sure our communities have the resources they need.

🥦 Need food?
If you or someone you know is experiencing food insecurity, GRCC has resources available to help. Message us to learn about food assistance and other support.

Hispanic Heritage Month Highlight - Sylvia Rivera 🏳️‍⚧️🌺

We’re honoring Sylvia Rivera, a Latina transgender activist whose courage helped shape LGBTQ+ history in the United States.

Born in New York City to Puerto Rican and Venezuelan parents, Rivera became a powerful voice for transgender people and others who were often pushed to the margins. She participated in the 1969 Stonewall Uprising and, in 1970, co-founded the Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (STAR) with Marsha P. Johnson. STAR provided food, clothing, and shelter to homeless transgender and q***r youth.

We celebrate the many identities, experiences, and stories that make our community stronger. This month, we remember Sylvia Rivera and the lasting impact of her voice.

✨Student Highlight✨

I am originally from Chicago, Illinois, and I decided to return to school because I want to create a better future for myself and make my child proud. I hope that by pursuing my education, I can set an example and encourage my child to follow their own educational dreams. Going back to school has given me the opportunity to invest in myself while showing my family that it is never too late to achieve your goals.My career goal is to one day own my own business, whether it's a party planning company or a hair salon. I am excited to continue learning the skills that will help me become a successful business owner.

What motivates me most is my younger children and my mother. My mom always dreamed of finishing school but never had the opportunity. Continuing my education is my way of honoring her while setting a positive example for my family.They inspire me to keep pushing forward, even when the journey becomes challenging. My advice to other students who are working toward similar goals is to never be afraid to ask for help. One of the biggest lessons I have learned is that talking with my TRIO Educational Opportunity Center advisor and asking questions has made a huge difference in my journey. No matter what concerns or barriers you may face, there is always someone willing to help you find a solution. Take advantage of the support and resources available to you—they are there to help you succeed. -Roshanda Brown
