Reedley College EOPS Office

The Extended Opportunity Programs and Services (EOPS), and Cooperating Agencies Resources for Education (CARE) program provides comprehensive support services to first generation college students who come from low-income and educationally disadvantaged backgrounds. "Over and above" support services are provided to assist students in the completion of their educational goals.

EOPS provides academic and financial support to community college students whose educational and socioeconomic backgrounds may deter them from successfully attending college and completing their educational goals. Services are specifically designed to offer educational support services to address the specific needs of historically disadvantaged students.

The Reedley College EOPS/CARE/NextUp program requires all participants to participate in 2 career preparation/readiness activities per year. These activities include career path mapping, career exploration, job readiness, and employability.

These are just a few services that students in our program can expect to receive from our EOPS staff. Throughout each semester we are constantly engaging our students with our three required contacts and student success workshops. Our student success workshops cover an array of information related to upcoming deadlines, scholarship opportunities, tutoring services, and how to find additional college resources online. Our ultimate goal is to provide additional services to help our students succeed and reach their educational goals.
