Food is one of the basic needs we all have and in these uncertain times, you may be finding it hard to buy or get the food you need. We want to make sure you have access to all the ways that you can get emergency access to food including breakfast programs, community meal programs, food banks, food pantries, and food delivery.
SSU Food First Program: Although SU offices are closed at the moment, Sheridan Student Union maintains their commitment to supporting students in need of food supports during this time and have made alternative modes of delivery available for this service. If you are in need of continued support through the Food First program, email askanadvisor@sheridancollege.ca. As always, Sheridan Student Union aims to provide as much as support as possible for our community at this time. Support will be available upon assessment with Sheridan’s Student Affairs team and in consideration of available resources.
