Similar to EOPS, CARE is also regulated by Title 5 and provides additional supplemental support services for EOPS students who are Temporary Aid to
Needy Families (TANF) recipients, single heads of household with at least one child under the age of 14 years old, and who can benefit from college-level
educational and vocational training to break the cycle of welfare dependency.
CARE students are provided all EOPS services as well as additional CARE grants, meal tickets, and informational workshops. On February 28 and 29, 2008,
the EOPS/CARE program went through the Chancellor’s Office Student Services Program Review and Technical Assistance Site Visit. Prior to the visit,
EOPS/CARE was required to submit a self evaluation. Please refer to the EOPS Unit/Area Action Plan for the Summary Report.

4. List your new and continuing unit goals. Based upon what you accomplished, do you have any changes you are making to your goals or
timeline? Please make any revisions to the timeline on the next page.
Continuing goals (if you did not do a unit plan, skip to the next box):
Goal(s): Because CARE students are EOPS students, the CARE goals listed below are additional to the EOPS goals.
Goal 1: Provide CARE grants.
Goal 2: Provide weekly meal tickets.
Goal 3: Provide informational workshops in collaboration with CalWORKs.
Accomplishment(s)/Outcome(s):
Because single parents have added responsibilities of caring for their families, the CARE program provides additional resources, grants and meal tickets, to
supplement their annual income. CARE students have an interest in developing soft skills and in self improvement, our program is committed to providing
ongoing life skills workshops in collaboration with the CalWORKs program to meet these needs.
