Closing Care Gaps by Providing Free Essential Items to All of the Broad Community
The Broad Care Center is a free resource for all students, faculty, and staff affiliated with the Eli Broad College of Business. The Center aims to help reduce stress, support student success, and promote community well-being. We offer the following:
- Quick snacks
- Hygiene Products
- Menstrual Products
- Household Items
Difficulty accessing essential items causes stress and diverts students’ focus from academics. According to the 2020 Michigan State University Student Health Assessment, 40% of students were classified as food insecure (Hembroff, 2020). While valuable resources like the MSU Food Bank exist on campus, the Broad Care Center is dedicated to bringing these crucial supports closer to the Broad Business Complex community, making it easier for students, faculty, and staff to access what they need.
I’m thrilled about the Broad Care Center because it offers vital support and resources that can truly make a difference in students' well-being. We at Broad work hard every day and often drain ourselves in our pursuits. Having a resource to turn to in times of need, whether that's a quick snack or menstrual products, makes all the difference in a student's day and it's a resource I am excited to support in Broad!
