Basic needs

This BPT Basic Needs information provides students with the important resources for day-to-day needs such as food, financial resources and emergency housing information.

SUNY Brockport is making every effort to destigmatize financial insecurity, student hunger and housing insecurity so students will feel empowered to reach out for help.

Financial resources are listed on the basic needs webpage and also the Financial Aid Office is a resource for students that are struggling with being able to afford to stay in college.

The Pantry is located in Dailey Hall, first floor. It is free and open to all faculty, staff, employees, students and local community members. The Pantry is open Monday-Friday from 8AM-5PM! Visit the Pantry to access food items of all kinds, paper products, hygiene products, menstrual supplies, household items, baby supplies, etc. You may come weekly to access supplies/food items to last a week.

College is expensive! Let Health Promotion and Prevention Education help cover some of the necessary wellbeing costs associated with safer sex supplies and/or menstrual products. Use our online ordering system to order free safer sex supplies or free menstrual products, and then we’ll text you to let you know when they’re ready to get picked up at Dailey Hall.

The Office of Health Promotion and Prevention Education is part of Hazen Center for Integrated Care. HPPE strives to make health contagious. Evidence and theory-based practices are used to assist students in developing and maintaining healthy behaviors, skills, and attitudes that enhance personal development, academic success, and campus/community well-being.

The Financial Aid Office assists prospective students, current students, and their families in obtaining the necessary financial resources to attend SUNY Brockport. This includes the financial advisement of students and their families, student consumer information, processing and facilitating the financial aid application and providing sound strategies in budgeting, alternative aid sources and debt management both during and after college. The ultimate goal for the Financial Aid Office is to minimize the financial concerns of our students so that they may concentrate on and maximize their opportunities for success.

Food Link supplies the many food banks throughout the local area and exist to serve as the hub of a local emergency food system. Check out the website below to find the food pantry nearest to you.
