Students can maintain the health and focus necessary for academic success by utilizing the nutritional resources coordinated by SJSU Cares. The Spartan Food Pantry allows for the weekly collection of fresh produce and groceries to bridge the gap in food access. Furthermore, one-on-one support for CalFresh applications is available to help students secure a more sustainable monthly food budget.
