Medical & Mental Health

Our members have worked tirelessly to provide mental health access for Washington’s most vulnerable communities. We’ve seen students integrate their educational and professional experiences to offer mental health services and develop first-hand experience working on this critical issue.

Housing & Food Security

WACC is supporting student and program-led efforts to feed and house the most vulnerable communities in our state. Through our CLEC program and bold efforts from our Student Civic Leadership Fellows, we are creating healthier futures for our neighbors and communities.

Environmental Stewardship

Now more than ever we must leverage community and higher educational resources to preserve and protect the environment and create a more sustainable future for those who come after us. Our members are heavily involved in community-based projects focused on environmental justice, ecological preservation, and sustainability.
