CalWORKs is the welfare reform initiative that began in January 1998. As a result, SBVC students who receive public assistance must now meet new school attendance and work requirements. Students on public assistance can seek support and guidance through the Career College & Workforce Development Office (Campus Center, Room 215) to assure that they are successful in their education and work.
