As Bronx Community College embarks on our 70th anniversary, we continue to reimagine how we support students academically, personally, and holistically. In that spirit, we are proud to announce that BCC CARES (Counseling and Resources for Emergency Support) is becoming BCC HOPE — Holistic Opportunities for Personal Empowerment.

BCC HOPE builds upon the strong foundation of services provided to students through the Access Resource Center and the Office of Personal Counseling while reflecting a broader, strengths-based approach to student success. Our commitment remains the same: helping students overcome non-academic barriers that can affect their well-being, persistence, and ability to graduate.

Aligned with the pillars of the BCC Renaissance, BCC HOPE reflects our commitment to student success, belonging, innovation, partnership, and institutional excellence. It recognizes that academic achievement is strengthened when students have access to coordinated support for their whole lives.

BCC HOPE will continue providing essential services, including mental health counseling and wellness support, the Bronco Hope Market and the Hope Grab and Go Healthy Snack Cart, emergency financial assistance, housing and benefits support, community referrals, and strengths-based case management.

This is more than a name change. It represents an evolution from responding to challenges to helping students identify the strengths, resources, and opportunities that move them forward. Please feel free to reach out to us for supports you might need for your students at bcc.hope@bcc.cuny.edu. We look forward to supporting you and your students this academic year!
