O que eu aprenderei?

Health and Human Service workers help people cope with life’s challenges. Some get people access to food or shelter. Some comfort people in crisis. Others teach people how to stay healthy, or manage their daily lives.

Usually, they focus on specific parts of the community, like children, the homeless, veterans, people seeking or in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, or individuals and families living with a mental health diagnosis.

A great many people rely on Human Service Workers every single day.

The Outlook

There are as many ways to help as there are people in need.

Community groups, hospitals, courts, clinics, children’s advocates, senior centers, military bases, prisons, homeless shelters, schools, psychiatric and rehabilitation facilities all need caring and dedicated people who want to give back to the community. And sometimes, when health and human service professionals see a need that none of those organizations are able to handle, they start one of their own.

An Associate in Arts Degree may be earned by completing a minimum of 60 units of degree credit coursework, including the major requirements and breadth requirements, with a minimum grade point average of 2.0. Students must complete all courses for the major with a grade of C or better.
