Basic Needs Statement

UNC Charlotte defines "basic needs" as those needs that, when unmet, can hinder students’ ability to focus on and successfully complete their academic studies. Basic needs include food security, housing security, transportation, health and wellbeing, technology, and child care. Any student who experiences difficulty in one or more of these areas is urged to contact the Student Assistance and Support Services (SASS) Office for support with navigating campus and community resources. Students can also consult the Niner Needs website for a list of helpful resources designed to address student needs.
