Associate of Arts - Health and Human Services - Human Services (Optional Co-op)

People who want to make a difference in a health and human services position will need empathy, courage and tenacity. They will also need the kind of education and training that is provided at Contra Costa College. From basic skills, like relating to clients and helping them find and use support services, to major projects, like planning and running a human services program. All of the Health and Human Services classes are offered at night or in the late afternoon, so if students already have a job, it is easy to fit this program into a schedule. Real-world experience through internships is also available at local agencies and organizations.

Contra Costa College has some of the most skilled and caring instructors in the field, with years of experience helping those in need. Students will have access to tutors, counselors and a career center whenever a little extra support is needed. And the class will be joined by a diverse group of classmates who share similar goals and are committed to supporting others.
