King • Chávez • Parks Program - Center for Community and Connection

NMU provides a host of services to all students, including those qualified to be served via the King • Chávez • Parks Program.

These services include, but are not limited to:

• Providing snacks: the Office of Diversity & Inclusion (ODI), located on the second floor in Hedgcock, has a snack pantry to provide quick, no-cook food options to keep students fed during the school day.  
  NOTE that the while the snack pantry is a good option for a quick snack each school day, the NMU food pantry, located in 101B Gries Hall can provide a bag of groceries and personal care items per week to any student, staff, or faculty member in need assistance. 
• Providing opportunities for students that increase contact with career professionals, faculty, staff, community, and their student cohort.
• Providing workshops, activities, and programs run by the ODI that are designed to assist in the deployment of targeted supports, both directly to the students and to student support-staff. This suite of resources will be designed to aid in academic success and advancement.
• Working to create a culture of academic achievement and graduation for historically underrepresented students.
