Basic Needs

Basic Needs @ CSU

“The Office for Basic Needs at CSU exists to ensure that students need not forgo meeting their basic needs in order to pursue a degree. To do that, we work with our Basic Needs Collective on campus, which is a group of CSU offices and professionals that work together on solving issues of basic needs access.

The Basic Needs Collective at CSU is comprised of The Office for Basic Needs / Rams Against Hunger, Student Case Management, Off-Campus Life, Housing and Dining, and other partners across CSU’s campus and the Fort Collins Community. If you or someone you know is struggling to meet their Basic Needs, students can contact Michael Buttram (Michael.Buttram@colostate.edu) or Kathryn Conrad (Kathryn.Conrad@colostate.edu). Employees can access support services through HR for more personalized information.”
