Our Goal, Vision & Commitment

The EOPS program’s mission is to encourage the enrollment, retention, and transfer of students handicapped by language, social, economic, and educational disadvantages and to facilitate the successful completion of their goals and objectives in college. EOPS offers academic, personal, and career counseling, financial resources, and other support services that go “over and above” the traditional services on college campuses.

The CCCEOPSA is established by members of the 116 California Community Colleges. The primary objective of the CCCEOPSA is to develop and maintain a statewide association for sharing, articulating, and disseminating up-to-date information regarding programs for disadvantaged students in the two-year community colleges and to assist the local EOPS programs.
